Synopsis
Sebastian, a passionate young director, and his producer arrive in the sumptuous setting of the Bolivian mountains to begin shooting a film. Production budgets are tight, and Costa, the producer, is delighted to be able to hire local actors and extras at a lower cost. But soon the shoot is interrupted by a revolt led by one of the main extras against the ruling power, which wants to privatize access to running water. Costa and Sebastian find themselves unwittingly caught up in this struggle for the survival of a destitute people. They must choose between supporting the cause of the population and pursuing their own venture, on which they have staked everything. This fight for justice will turn their lives upside down.
