SYNOPSIS (ENG)

On the heights of the Chilean mountaintops, the sound of drums is heard across the glade. The singer Antu Liwen, a daughter of two worlds, leads the narrative as she reminisces about growing up as a mestiza and her relationship with the Mapuche identity. Her personal experience is a testimony to the historical traumas of the Mapuche community and resistance. After being denied the right to learn and speak the language of her community as a child due to her mother's fear of discrimination later in her life, Antu Liwen embraces her identity and regains her connection to her heritage and land.
