After the Agrarian Reform enacted in 1969 by the government led by Juan Velasco Alvarado, the Andean communities recovered their land, obtained fundamental rights such as access to public education and the possibility of working for themselves. From then on, life alternatives opened up for the children of the Andes who, unlike their predecessors, could attend school, although they still had to face many scarcities. This film looks at the lives of these children, who, together with their communities, are trying to move forward.
