A puma stalks an indigenous community in the North of Argentina. Hunting is a rite of passage, and the older boys want to kill the puma. But Uriel chooses a different path. The local government built twenty-four concrete tents in the middle of the desert. A modern camp to where lots of ranqueles from nearby cities moved. It is the origin of a community, and the origin of a scenography that is also the protagonist of this film.
