Setting off down the Amazon to bring back word of El Dorado, the smaller group meets so many obstacles that its leader sensibly decides to turn back; Aguirre (Klaus Kinski) leads a rebellion, and the small band continues downriver in search of the golden city...

Verfassungsschutz advised Interatom of Traube's dubious friendships; they decided against dismissing him immediately on the theory that he might go underground and threaten nuclear revenge. Nine days after the OPEC raid, an agent interrupted Traube...
