Synopsis

A film inspired by Sonia Montecino's literary work "Rites of Life and Death: Witches and Sorceresses." In the tense and complex context of the Kingdom of Chile in 1693, where power struggles between indigenous communities and Spanish colonizers intensify, a conflict unfolds that intertwines spirituality, the occult, and war as a method of territorial resistance. During the period of parliaments in the Arauco War, a Machi Wenteche with a deep knowledge of life and death is subjected to a Western trial for murdering a group of Lonkos, friends of the Spanish, through witchcraft.
