During the pandemic, rural teacher Walter Velásquez, dedicated to science and technology for years, creates a robot from computer scrap and baptizes it with the name Kipi. Most of Walter's students left school due to COVID-19 pandemic and returned to their communities. Without connectivity or access due to dispersed population centers, Kipi becomes the teacher's assistant and accompanies the educational pilgrimage of its creator, bringing learning to homes and communities.
