Sweetgrass just released On the Road Episode VII: Welcome to the Jungle. On the Road provides a behind the scenes look at the creation of their last film, Solitaire. This episode explores the jungles and rivers around Iquitos Peru with Ptor Spricenieks.

Sweetgrass’ work in the jungle provides the introduction for one of the cooler segments in their movie. It is part of a segment that follows Ptor, the lone traveler, as he journeys from the source to the summit. They start deep in the jungle, follow a river all the way upstream to its original mountain source, and proceed to climb that mountain.

This episode is in a 12 part series, so keep a look out for new episodes coming every week. Also, check out their last episode, shot in Bolivia: End of the Line.
