Young bootblack Tupah embarks on a frantic quest to find his uncle lost in the Averno, a place where the Andean inhabitants believe that the dead coexist with the living and where everything finds its opposite face. In a dangerous journey through the underworld, he faces his greatest fears, as myth and reality get endlessly intertwined and the death-loaded night in La Paz unveils the surreal face of the imaginary of the Andes.
