Dawson was the cultural advisor to the award-winning, full-length feature film, Yai Wanonabalewa The Enemy God (www.theenemygod.com), the true story of a Yanomamo leader recounting his life as a shaman and the supernatural struggle for the survival of his people. .a bit of Huck Finn, with an Amazon twist. Simon Romero Andean Bureau Chief, The New York Times Imagine a white boy, in the hood of this jungle tribe, living, playing, and growing up Yanomamo. Christopher Bessette, Writer/Director of the feature film Yai Wanonabalewa The Enemy God .a story of life with Stone-Age people, guaranteed to expand the mind of even the most experienced.
