COVER STORY

DR. CHRISTINA RAHM

Enriching Lives Globally Through a Holistic Healthcare Approach

DRC Ventures | Founder

It is not uncommon for personal experiences to shape our professional endeavors, helping us attain success. The story of Dr. Christina Rahm, PhD, Founder of DRC Ventures, follows a similar theme.

In her early life, Dr. Christina faced illnesses such as cancer and Lyme disease that she overcame through evidence-based medical treatments. However, her views on evidence-based medicine shifted soon after her Master of Science degree, with the understanding that the prescribed onesize-ts-all methods might not work for each individual and that nding the root cause was vital.

Precisely, this vision to nd the origin of the problem and help the global population overcome health issues led her to found DRC Ventures and become the scientic formulator and Chairman of the Board, for The ROOT Brands®, aiming to enhance the well-being of people globally.

Dr. Christina, in her personal and professional life, wears many hats— she is a scientic inuencer, patent inventor, environmental and human researcher, published author, humanitarian, businesswoman, and the Most Inspiring Business Leader to Watch in 2024.

Nestled in the heart of the Amazon rainforest is the beautiful city of Manaus, the capital of the Brazilian state of Amazonas. This enchanting city is a meeting point between the untamed wilderness and the vibrant energy of urban life. Here, the mighty Amazon River ows gracefully, intertwining with the bustling streets, creating a captivating fusion of natural wonders and modern marvels.

Known at the beginning of the century as the Heart of the Amazon and City of the Forest, Manaus is the seventh largest city in Brazil with an estimated population of 2.7 million. It is situated near the conuence of the Negro and Amazon rivers and is one of the two cities in the Amazon Rainforest with a huge population. The name Manaus comes from the native people called Manaós, which means Mother of the Gods.

The
MANAUS

Best Time to Visit

Manaus has a tropical climate with consistently high temperatures and humidity. It rains throughout the year, with daily rainstorms in the afternoon, even during the dry months. The best time to visit Manaus would be from July to September when the humidity is lower and the weather is great for exploring the city and rainforests.

Although, the best visiting months can depend on your preference.

If you want to explore the Amazon rainforests and spot wildlife, December to March would be ideal, as the water level recedes during this period.

If you're interested in experiencing festivals, there are music festivals in June and July, and the dazzling Amazonas carnival in February.

Martin Scorsese’s lmography is a sprawling landscape, but for many, 1980s Raging Bull was his crowning achievement. Modern cinephiles revere it as a classic, but critics back then weren’t exactly throwing roses. Adapted from Jake LaMotta’s raw memoir, Raging Bull’s uninching portrayal of the boxer’s life initially landed blows for being too violent.

Despite a box ofce knockout (meaning it opped), Raging Bull racked up eight Oscar nominations, winning two – Best Editing and a searing Best Actor performance for Robert De Niro. De Niro’s portrayal of LaMotta is a masterclass in raw intensity, showcasing his dedication and ferocious talent. So, even if boxing movies aren’t your usual ringside seat, give Raging Bull a shot, as it might top your list of best movies on Amazon Prime.

1. | June 2024 30

The 90s were a golden age for rom-coms, with classics like Sleepless in Seattle and As Good As It Gets leaving a lasting mark. But nestled amongst these gems is Notting Hill, a charming tale that adds a dash of British wit to the familiar meet-cute formula.

Hugh Grant shines as the endearingly awkward William Thacker, a bookstore owner whose life takes a Hollywood turn when the captivating Julia Roberts (playing a famous actress) stumbles into his shop. Their contrasting worlds collide, creating a hilarious sh-out-ofwater dynamic. Despite their differences, a spark ignites, and the path to happily-ever-after unfolds, even if the ending might be a bit predictable.

Notting Hill was a hit with critics and audiences, ranking at the top of our list of 12 best Amazon Prime movies. It’s a feel-good lm with a winning combination of humor, romance, and a dash of British charm. If you’re looking for a classic rom-com that will leave you smiling, Notting Hill on Amazon Prime Video is the perfect escape.

Jordan Peele’s comedic background might lead you to expect slapstick, but Get Out throws a knockout punch into the horror genre. This isn’t your average scare-fest; it’s a layered masterpiece working on two levels, making it one of the best options for Amazon Prime movies. On the surface, we follow the characters’ journeys. But beneath the laughs lies a chilling subtext, a descent into the darkest reaches of human cruelty.

Get Out isn’t afraid to confront the ugly truth of racism. It takes the deep-seated fears of the AfricanAmerican community and twists them into a terrifying sci- metaphor. Here, escape is impossible. The body becomes a prison, stolen and controlled. It is a vision of despair that will linger in your memory long after the credits roll.

And the critics agree – Get Out boasts a near-perfect 98% score on Rotten Tomatoes. So, if you’re looking for a horror lm that transcends jump scares and delivers a powerful social commentary, this movie is the perfect t.

Green Knight The 4.

Dev Patel’s star continues to rise with his captivating performance in The Green Knight. Here, he takes on the mantle of Sir Gawain, King Arthur’s nephew and a Knight of the Round Table. While the core characters remain familiar, director David Lowery infuses the Arthurian legend with a fresh, almost parodic perspective.

The Green Knight is a feast for the senses, offering profound contemplations on courage, faith, desire, honesty, and the intoxicating allure of power. Sir Gawain’s perilous quest may leave his fate hanging in the balance. His journey pushes him to the brink, revealing the true measure of his character.

Patel delivers a captivating performance, making The Green Knight one of the best Amazon Prime movies, a must-watch for anyone seeking a visually stunning and thought-provoking reimagining of a timeless tale.

The 2023’s buzziest word in pop culture was not a song or a dance craze but a movieSaltburn, one of the best movies on Amazon Prime. This darkly atmospheric lm follows Oliver (played by Barry Keoghan) as he visits his friend Felix’s family home for the summer. What starts as a carefree hangout takes a sharp turn as Oliver develops an intense, unsettling affection for Felix.

The lines between friendship and dangerous obsession blur, leaving Felix’s family in the crossre. The unpredictable narrative will keep you guessing until the very end. Saltburn boasts powerhouse performances from Carey Mulligan, Rosamund Pike, and Barry Keoghan, with Jacob Elordi solidifying his online fame.

It may not be a awless masterpiece, but sometimes, a bit of imperfection can be the secret ingredient to a truly captivating experience.

6. Red, White & Royal Blue

Amazon Studios struck gold with Red, White & Royal Blue, a delightful rom-com that’s become a beacon for LGBTQ+ audiences in 2023. Based on Casey McQuiston’s beloved novel, it’s the perfect escape for fans of the genre seeking a subversive twist.

The lm throws protocol out the window when the First Son of the United States, Alex, falls for Henry, a prince in line for the British throne. Theirs is a love story splashed across international headlines, making for a sensational (and yes, the title is a dead giveaway) romance.

Sure, the sparks may y with melodramatic air, but Red, White & Royal Blue expertly blends sugar-sweet moments with a dash of real-world intrigue. It’s a fairy tale with a modern twist, a perfect option from Amazon Prime movies, seeking a queer rom-com that’s leagues ahead of predictable attempts like Love, Simon.

While Christopher Nolan’s 2023 hit Oppenheimer garnered acclaim, his sci- masterpiece Interstellar remains a standout among the best movies on Amazon Prime. This tale of humanity’s desperate gamble for survival takes astronaut Cooper (Matthew McConaughey) on an intergalactic odyssey.

Interstellar tackles mind-bending scientic concepts but translates them into visually breathtaking space travel. Audiences are left in awe of the cosmos’ vast beauty and the profound loneliness it holds. Though some may nd the emotional core lacking, the lm’s sheer visual spectacle is a triumph, making it a must-watch from Amazon Prime movies for sci- fans.

Top Gun: Maverick deed pandemic odds, becoming the rst billion-dollar lm since COVID. With its pulse-pounding action, mind-blowing stunts, and sky-high stakes, it’s a cinematic spectacle that critics agree surpasses the original.

Heathers isn’t your typical high school movie. Forget teen heartthrobs and cafeteria food ghts. This darkly comedic gem skewers the vicious world of cliques, where a trio of popular girls named Heather rules the roost. Veronica, the lone non-Heather, joins forces with the new bad boy, J.D., to dismantle the queen bee’s reign – with hilariously deadly consequences.

Heathers is one of the must-watch Amazon Prime movies for fans of dark comedy. Winona Ryder shines as Veronica, solidifying her status as a scream queen legend. It’s a scathing satire of John Hughes’ rosyhued teen lms, offering an uninching look at the brutal reality of surviving high school’s social mineeld. Laughter and gasps are guaranteed.

Riz Ahmed delivers a powerful performance as Ruben, a recovering heroin addict who nds solace in drumming. But his world is shattered when he loses his hearing. Now, Ruben faces a lifealtering choice: ght to regain his hearing or embrace his new reality as a deaf person.

Sound of Metal transcends music. It’s a raw and emotional journey exploring disability, loss, and the power of human connection. Critics praised the lm’s authentic portrayal of deafness, featuring American Sign Language (ASL) and innovative sound design that creates a truly immersive experience and is worthy to rank on our list of best movies on Amazon Prime for free.

Everything Everywhere All At Once (streaming on Amazon Prime) is NOT your average multiverse movie. Michelle Yeoh is phenomenal as Evelyn, a ChineseAmerican immigrant swept into an interdimensional adventure.

Evelyn isn’t just battling bizarre alternate realities – she’s grappling with family, regret, and the weight of unspoken truths. Prepare for hilarious ghts, heartwarming moments, and a powerful exploration of self-discovery.

EEAAO dominated the 2023 Oscars, winning Best Picture, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actor (and holding the record for mostawarded lm ever). We had to include it in our list of top Amazon Prime movies.

Sure, unlike our list of 12 Best Amazon Prime Movies to Watch, not every movie is a masterpiece. However, they can provide a much-needed escape, a chance to recharge. Laughter is a powerful medicine, after all.

The truth is that movies being as objective as they are, also have a subjective ripple of different effects on individuals. Some can crack you up while some provoke thought, and some do both. They can be a waste of time or a powerful tool for understanding ourselves and the world around us. It all depends on what you choose to watch and what you choose to take away.

So, the next time you settle in for a movie night, don’t forget to go through our list of best Amazon Prime movies. You might just be surprised by what you nd.

INTRODUCTION
