    • Synopsis
    • Don Alfonso loses his job playing the marimba, an indigenous, traditional Guatemalan instrument, at a hotel in Guatemala City. The marimba is considered old fashioned and there is little interest in hearing this type of music. He approaches musician Blacko and proposes that they fuse the sound of the marimba with heavy metal.
