According to the movie, “End of the Spear,” the viewer can clearly see the different culture in between the western people and the native people (Amazonian), from their language, clothing, living style, and their behavior. In the western, people learn to understand and forgive each other; in contrast, the Waodani tribe is brutal, cold blooded. They will kill the people that look dangerous and offense to them. Overall, this is an amazing story of Truth, Love, and Forgiveness.
