“El Negro discovers the heavy price of respect, Doña Ofelia's ways, and the powers of Mandinga in his search for fortune.”
Set in a classical Uruguayan folk story, we follow El Negro, a young argentine man stepping into a new town. He seeks his fortune, but must face the town's true matriarch, Doña Ofelia, and her watchful cat, Mandinga.
