Synopsis
4 of the world biggest astronomical observatories have been built in the Atacama desert (Chile). A new observatory, the ALMA, is going to be constructed close to an Indian village established in the same Cordillera for centuries. The film questions the co-existence on the same territory of two visions of the sky: scientists’ "rational" view and the Indians’ "magical" one.
