The short film portrays the everyday life of San Mateo del Mar through the story of a family of fishermen, weavers, and merchants in a narrative that blends documentary and fiction. The film thus captures, from the perspective of its members—and specifically through a young female lens—various aspects of the Ikoots people's society and culture, as well as how they wished to document and share them with the outside world.

A grandmother tells her granddaughter the origin story of the Ikoots people, while the everyday life of San Mateo del Mar unfolds on screen.
