    • Synopsis
    • In the 1940s, Los Hermanos Abalos brought to the cosmopolitan city of Buenos Aires the traditional music and dances of the mounts of Santiago del Estero. They played together for 60 years in a row, becoming one of the legendary bands of Argentinean folklore music, with a style of their own.


      At 88 years old, the last living member of the band, Vitillo Abalos, is preparing for an adventure - to rescue from oblivion the music he and his brothers, who are now gone, created and played their whole life.

      With his grandnephew Juan by his side, who was raised surrounded by native rhythms but is now a member of one of the most popular rock bands of Argentina, Vitillo decided to set on a musical trip that will lead them in ways they can't even imagine.
