This film portrays the childhood of Pukem Swa (10), whose name means winter sun. He is a mysterious boy who lives on a remote mountain in the Colombian Andes, where he learns an extinct indigenous language that no one else speaks. As we walk with him through the mountains, we encounter the Chibcha language, which begins to come alive: revealing the sounds hidden within the stones painted by his ancestors.
