END OF THE SPEAR
SYNOPSIS
Mincayani is born into the most violent society ever
documented by anthropologists, the Waodani in the
eastern rainforest of Ecuador. As he grows he
learns what every Waodani understands, he must
spear and live or be speared and die. Mincayani's
world changes when he and his family kill five
missionaries, Nate Saint, Jim Elliot, Ed McCully, Pete
Fleming and Roger Youderian. This incident propels
Mincayani's family group down an extraordinary
path that culminates in them not only departing from
violence, but also caring for the enemy tribe they
had once violently raided.
Nate Saint's son Steve was a boy when his father
and friends were killed. He returns to the Waodani
as an adult and finally learns from Mincayani what
happened during the last minutes of his father's life.
Together Mincayani and Steve find that what Nate
accomplished in his death gave them both a new life
and Steve's family becomes part of Mincayani's
family.
