In this hostile natural environment, tough personalities were forged for centuries, but with an unparalleled spark of humor and wisdom. Filmed in 28 locations in the region, in villages, towns, and cities in the three Andean states of Mérida, Táchira, and Trujillo, the film preserves local myths and legends that have shaped generations. During their adventurous lives, locals encountered supernatural beings, from witches to the mischievous "Momoyes," goblins who locals say continue to punish those who dare to pollute the region. A magical and ancient universe that lives on in the memories of the local people.
