- Summary:
- The patron saint celebration in an indigenous community in Mexico is the setting where a photographer loses his shadow. In a spiritual exchange during a traditional funeral, he will also lose the convictions that keep him tied to his world. In order to recover, he will have to travel an initiatory path along with the inhabitants of the community, sharing a different way of approaching the environment. However, only when he accepts the loss of his shadow will he be able to face the woman who has taken it and succeed in recovering it.
