38 分钟Hi, it's Helen here.
Today in Focus is on our summer break, and in our absence,
we wanted to give you the chance to listen to this really excellent series called Missing in the Amazon.
It's hosted by The Guardian's Latin America correspondent, Tom Phillips,
and it's from our new narrative strand, Guardian Investigates.
It's a feed where you can find all of The Guardian's award-winning narrative podcasts,
plus every new series we release.
We'll see you on September 1st with a new Today in Focus, but in the meantime, here is episode five.
Dom's funeral took place exactly three weeks after he was killed.
And I can say, with some confidence, that there's never been a funeral quite like it.
So I have no words in English to explain this, so Portuguese.
Alice is that there were three very clear instructions that Dom left in his will for his funeral.
The first one was that he didn't want it to be conducted by a religious leader.
The second instruction was that music had to be played.
And he left three songs.
I love it.
That was the one that, I think,
made everybody completely lose the plot and break down in tears, right?
And a second one by...
Lady Eye.
