Deep in the mountains in Colombia, the descendants of railroad workers have created a makeshift transport system that runs on abandoned tracks. Through an immersive ride in a tropical forest we discover the daily rhythm of this vehicle that serves hundreds of people every day, who were left disconnected when the national train became obsolete. In the midst of internal petty arguments, the group is suddenly threatened by authorities who arbitrarily force them to legalize.
