Pibia Awin is one of five Iskobakebo (Isconahua) elders who were uprooted from their village and now live in the Callería River basin in Peru. They are the last surviving Iskobakebo, a people who lived deep in the forest, in isolation. An unexpected visit suggests that their relatives are in the Brazilian Amazon, and thus the hope of reunion is born. This documentary brings us closer to the world of the Indigenous people living in voluntary isolation on the Peru-Brazil border and the serious threats they face, such as the Pucallpa-Cruzeiro do Sul highway, illegal logging, drug trafficking, and territorial conflicts that put their existence in constant danger.
