A washed-up writer sets out for Ecuador's jungle in search of a rare hallucinogen. Traveling amid a gaggle of thrill-seeking tourists, he finds his drug, which heightens both his powers of perception and his libido but leaves him with an unfortunate side effect: periodic blindness. It's a Faustian bargain he is willing to take, as long as it helps him finish his novel.
