Chimborazo's ice pickers have long been subjected for years to the inclemency of the volcano, located in the Ecuadorian Andes. In exchange, they crush some of its ice to provide for their people. Baltazar Ushca is the only one who continue this profession, daily walking for hours to get blocks of ice. He remembers his youth and his companions.

An allegory contemplating the nuances of forest stewardship and the interconnectedness of monoculture tree farms with Canada's current wildfire crisis. This is a visually poetic rumination on the relationship between fire and forests -environmentally, personally, economically. It includes interviews with interesting people andexperts, as well as visual montages featuring folks who work with trees, with lumber, and withfire. The filmmaker suggests some new understandings are needed.
