SERRANO, Edwin Cubides  and  CANO, Luz Adriana Garay. Simplicity and savage in La Vorágine [The Vortex] and El abrazo de la serpiente [Embrace of the Serpent]. La Palabra [online]. 2021, n.40, e101.  Epub Oct 11, 2021. ISSN 0121-8530.  https://doi.org/10.19053/01218530.n40.2021.11630.

This paper aims a new approach to indigenous representation in literature and cinema through the intertextual analysis between La Vorágine (1924) [The Vortex] and El abrazo de la serpiente (2015) [Embrace of the Serpent]. It is concluded, after a detailed study, that both - the novel and the film, bring a new perspective from the indigenous by means of simplicity as an actual way of being of this important community in Colombia.

Keywords : indigenous; childhood; simplicity; intertextuality; novel; film; plot; Amazon.
