Tawai is the word the nomadic hunter gatherers of Borneo use to describe their inner feeling of connection to nature. In this dreamy, philosophical and sociological look at life, explorer Bruce Parry travels the world to learn from people living lives very different to our own. From the jungles of Malaysia to the tributaries of the Amazon, TAWAI is a quest for reconnection, providing a powerful voice from the heart of the forest itself.

This looks intriguing and fascinating. I wish I could see it at the Laemmle in LA but tied up all week-end. Atossa of Amazon Watch forwarded your message about it. Wishing you all the best with it. The last doc I worked on was Love Thy Nature by Sylvie Rokab narrated by Liam Neeson that has a similar message but from different angles. - @Saturday, September 22, 2018 11:03 PM

Great film. Bruce is looking for Oneness in the jungle, in the crowds of India, everywhere. Maybe he should stop and listen... Oneness is inside us all. - @Monday, November 20, 2017 2:43 PM

I had the pleasure of seeing this on the big screen last night followed by a Q and A by Bruce. He really is as humble, honest and full of love as he seems in his films. It's brilliant by the way. Thank you Bruce.x - @Friday, November 10, 2017 9:13 AM
