Not to be missed if you like to travel off the beaten track. Ignacio, an ageing nomadic maestro of traditional Colombian music, embarks on a journey to return his cursed accordion from where it came with a young boy tagging along hoping to learn how to play. Their journey takes them through fantastically beautiful countryside and a series of strange encounters on what becomes an elemental quest punctuated by glorious, haunting music. With a jawdropping accordion duel this is a real discovery, quite unlike anything you'll ever have seen before.
"stunningly captures the landscapes of northern Colombia, ...(it has) a unique, illuminating quality." London Film Festival
