Short
On a hunt for the Fountain of Youth, three teenagers in 80's Honduras buy drugs, harm nature and have magical encounters. Long silent jungle sequences, a meditation on Mayan Archaology and a heavy a TV teen vibe make Blondes in the Jungle at once an absurd comedy and a serious film about the possibility of spiritual growth in a world of instant gratification. Featuring eight original songs by El Jefe and The Executive Look, a 1987 World Beat band assembled from the ranks of Vampire Weekend, Aa (Big A little a), The Birthday Boyz, Asobi Seksu and Julianna Barwick.
