Through the eyes of 12-year-old Juvi, we witness life in the silver mines of Potosí, Bolivia. In a world shaped by grueling work and constant danger, children grow up navigating a daily reality of both violence and fleeting hope. For families who work the mines, spiritual rituals offer comfort in an unforgiving environment. With slow, observant storytelling and striking imagery, the film traces the enduring legacy of colonial exploitation and the human cost of a globalized world.
