An audiovisual experiment that blends animation techniques with documentary and theatrical language. It was made with children and young people from the Yivi workshop and is based on a true story: the fire on Cerro del Cacahuate, in Santo Domingo Yanhuitlán, Oaxaca, in February 2021. The short film unfolds as a fantastical tale where animals, fungi, and trees are the protagonists of an encounter with a human on the verge of death who, in desperation, climbs the hill to venture into the forest.
