Atoqcha travels between his home in the mountains where his mother lives and the city of Cusco, looking for a place to live and work, seeking a future as a civil engineering student. Along his journey, he will find a friend who will welcome him like family. However, Atoqcha cannot forget his mother or his sister, who is also searching for her own path, or the land where he grew up. Going back is his way, despite starting anew, because his heart will always be divided, just like his country.
