This evocative portrait of Mexico follows Niere, a young Huichol Indian caught between his traditional culture and his youthful ambitions. On a trip to Mexico City with his father, a shaman (or Mara’akame) training his son in the art of spiritual healing, Niere only wants to perform with his rock band. But the young man’s dreams guide him down a more spiritual path of self-awakening, as the urban realities of city life blend with the mysticism of his people.
