16th century. Tepulpaï and his best friend Naïra, two young children from the Andes, live happily in their village nestled in the heart of the Peruvian mountains. One day, an Incan convoy arrives to collect the tax in the name of Inti, the Sun God. To the villagers' shock, the tax collector decides to take the village’s sacred idol as a tribute to the Great Inca.

For the community, it’s a catastrophe—the idol has protected them for generations! But for Tepulpaï, it’s a chance to finally prove his worth. Secretly, he leaves the village and embarks on a quest to retrieve the sacred idol, the only thing that can save his people from the looming threat arriving from beyond the seas.

Stills

«Pachamama contrasts the Andean worldview, where humans see themselves as part of a fragile whole, with that of the Europeans of the time, who believed humans to be the center of creation.»
