STORYTELLER:
It wasAnouk's favorite story.

:37:25
Always told in the same words.
:37:28
George was honest,
prosperous...

:37:31
and trusted by his customers.
:37:35
But George was not content.
:37:37
He feIt there
should be more to life...

the Societe Pharmeceutique...
:37:48
formed an expedition
to Central America...

:37:51
to study
the medicinalproperties...

:37:53
ofcertain naturalcompounds.
:37:58
George was the expedition's
most eager volunteer.

:38:04
But his adventure
took a turn he did not expect.

:38:11
One night, he was invited
to drink unrefined cacao...

:38:15
with a pinch ofchili.
:38:17
The very same drink
the ancientMaya...

:38:21
used in theirsacred
ceremonies.

:38:26
The Maya believed
cacao held the power...

:38:29
to unlock hidden yearnings...
:38:33
and revealdestinies.
:38:39
And so it was
that George first saw Chitza.

:38:48

a good Catholic...

:38:51
but in his romance
with Chitza...

:38:55
he was willing
to slightly bend the rules...

:38:57
ofChristian courtship.
