A group of filmmakers arrives in Santiago de Chuco, a town in the Peruvian highlands where the poet César Vallejo was born. With the excuse of a casting, the filmmakers appropriate the theater and the inhabitants of the place arrive, revealing little by little some lives embraced by the aura of the poet, who died in Paris seventy years ago. All of them, inhabitants and filmmakers, are confused between verses, stories and poetry. Fantasy emerges and characters like the blind Santiago-who rings the bells always warning something-; or the young musician Elder - whose desires loom like a cornucopia-trace a liminal path between fiction and reality.

Eva es una joven fotógrafa que busca encontrarse en las imágenes. Miguel, un pintor que tiene el mágico poder de transformar el retrato de sus clientes y ofrecerles lo que ellos desean ser. Jhonny es un errante vendedor peruano que recorre calles mexicanas ofreciendo historias y recuerdos. Son tres relatos de búsqueda, enmarcadas por la pintura y por una realidad latinoamericana que los maravilla y sobrepasa.
