Description

High-altitude anthropologist and Head of the Qhapaq Ñan Program, Christian Vitry was part of the expedition which pulled out the Children of the Llullaillaco from within the volcano in 1999. This documentary closely frames Vitry's preparation process, among informative and human talks with the Koya community -who must give him permission to start climbing in the area-, and peronal stories that turn this story into a real travelogue.
