Abstract "This documentary shows the culture of the people that live in the southern region of Conchucos (Ancash, Peru) through their relationships with water. Along a voyage starting at 2000 meters above sea level and ending at 5000 meters in the Cordillera Blanca, we meet 4 charcters that tell us about the different ways they relate to water. Antonio is a carpenter and recalls how his ancestors used to call for water during droughts. Ninfa shows us how to make maize beer and Bebel tells us about how he makes educational documentaries and about an origin myth. Finally, José describes how global warming has affected his profession and the glaciers that give the water to all the region"--Container.
