The feature film narrates from a human and cruel perspective the facts about the uprising and flight of the “Ixil” Indians in Guatemala, a group that managed to survive the massacre against them led by the EGP (Guerrilla Army of the Poor) in the eighties. The Ixiles were led by Tomas Guzaro (Fernando Cuautle) on their way to freedom. The Guatemalan civil war was one of the bloodiest in Latin America, pointing to the Guatemalan army as responsible for the indigenous genocide when other realities existed that virtually no filmmaker had dared to tell until the arrival of “Nebaj”, the other side of the coin.
