Moe, a fun-loving theater artist working on a one woman show, finds out that he is dying from an AIDS related illness. Naturally, his response is to invite his closest friends over for a “going away for good” party as one last big celebration of his life. His plans go awry when his best friend, and his ex, decide to crash the party, despite 15 years without communication between them. Alternating between the painful reality of his current situation and scenes featuring his alter ego, a torch-singing drag queen who wants to take him for “the ride of his life,” MOE is an often light-hearted film that also packs a serious emotional punch.

Nineteen years after recording "Las Alturas de Macchu Picchu", Los Jaivas returned to Cusco in March 2000 for an exclusive concert at the imposing ruins of Sacsayhuamán. Thirty thousand people gathered (braving the rain at times) to witness this magnificent spectacle, which also featured a thrilling and massive choreography. The reunion with their friends from the band "El Polen" fostered a sense of camaraderie that Los Jaivas have always cultivated in their songs. The work of filmmaker José Luis Valenzuela is particularly interesting, blending footage of the concert with images of the set, rehearsals, travel and stay in Cusco.
