    • Nehuen Puyelli and his family are of Mapuche descent and they live in the south of Argentina. Nehuen is a healer who helps people from different social levels. Ramon Arce is the leader of the prison where he purges the end of a long sentence. Both men cross their fates within a framework of isolation, when Nehuen is jailed in the same prison, as a result of the prevailing judicial corruption in a Patagonian city. A vengeful wealthy mother uses every means at her disposal to push Nehuen to an extreme situation.
