In May 2008 a series of photographs flashed around the global media. Naked painted figures firing arrows at a passing plane in one of the most remote forest regions of the world - The Amazon.

The pictures caught the world's imagination - are they the first ever pictures of an isolated tribe never before contacted? Who are they and why are they there? Was this the first contact these people have had with the modern world? And who took the pictures and has this happened before?

This film is an investigative adventure up the Envira River into the heart of this mysterious region, to two base camps and the Peruvian border. A journey to find the true answers to a huge mystery - just who is the Tribe in the Picture?
