The community of Zihuatanejo, Mexico is subjected symbolically to a process of introspection and catharsis through a temazcal bath. This results in an exploration of its almost unknown ancient past, which, in the voice of some of the most recognized members of the community, examines some of the most distinctive elements of its culture, but at the same time finds a particularly difficult relationship between rulers And ruled. This leads to the present moment where the inhabitants of Zihuatanejo live the challenge of thriving tourism, amid problems such as pollution and violence of organized crime. This is an exploration of the contrast that means paradise and oblivion coexisting in a single unit, of diversity within the multiple realities that make up one; Of the belief and the myth that seek to reconfigure the reality and try to explain what little has been explained; Of a national political reality that has not remained in the past, but which persists in our day.
