This is a rare inside view of the traditional music and rituals (including a ritual to Pachamama, Mother Earth) of the Indians of the Quebrada, a mountainous region of northern Argentina that was the southernmost part of the Inca empire. The film also contains dramatic concert footage, Jaime's band in practice, scenes from a Bolivian neighborhood in Buenos Aires, the dancing of a chacarera, as well as Jaime talking about his music, his culture and his life.
