SYNOPSIS

Miguel, a traditional indigenous healer, and Jose, a poet to whom the stories of his Mokaná ancestors are revealed in his dreams, lead the pilgrimage to the sacred site of Kamaashjorhu during a full moon ceremony. At this site, there is a carved stone that holds the secrets and memories of the community, on which members of the ethnic group perform rituals.
