    • Synopsis
    • Cerro quemado is the journey of Micaela Chauque and her mother Yurquina, in search of her grandmother Felipa, the last inhabitant of an inhospitable place in the high peaks of northern Salta.

      It is also the reunion of three women and three generations of the same Coya lineage, who have been separated by their own destinies and who today meet in the ancestral lands that have seen them born.
