Healer (film, 1992)

A scientist who has dedicated his life to finding a cure for cancer, Dr. Robert Campbell, falls into the Amazonian jungle. Without any connection with the outside world, he is looking for a panacea for a deadly disease in these impenetrable forests, and in the meantime, the company sponsoring him sends Dr. Ray Crane, who must find out the state of affairs and understand what is happening. There is a deep romantic feeling between the enemies at first, and when the goal of the search is already close, cruel businessmen impede the realization of the goal of saving the lives of millions of people.

John Maktirnan , despite the fact that the action takes place in the Brazilian Amazon, wanted to make a film in Borneo , where he had previously worked on the science-fiction film " Predator ". However, rainforests were destroyed there, and he had to make a film in Mexico. For the filming of the film, the Brazilian Indians were brought specifically.

In 1993, for the worst female role of Dr. Ray Crane, which was performed by Lorraine Bracco, the film was nominated for Golden Raspberries .
