A mediados de los 80, una pareja de estadounidenses viaja al Peru para encontrar remedio a una enfermedad incurable. Ello coincide con los años del terrorismo maoísta. Su camino toma un giro dramático cuando el destino de ambos se trunca por su muerte bajo extrañas circunstancias. Veinte años después, el hijo de ambos decide recorrer la huella de sus padres en una aventura fascinante y bizarra que lo lleva a visitar curanderos en remotos caseríos de los Andes y chamanes en lo profundo del Amazonas. Cuando su travesía llega a su clímax, la verdad acerca de la muerte de sus padres le es revelada. n the late 1980's, during Peru's bloody internal conflict, an American couple traveled through the countryside looking for alternative healers to treat the woman's terminal illness. On that fateful trip, they vanished completely. At the time, local authorities claimed they had been kidnapped and killed by communist insurgents of the Shining Path movement.Twenty years later, their son Matt retraces their steps in an intriguing and sometime bizarre trip to visit Shamans in Andean remote villages as well as deep in the Amazon jungle. Matt is looking for people that might have known his parents, and undergoes some of the same treatments his mother had received. During his journey, the real cause of his parents' death is gradually revealed.
