This visual essay blends animation and live-action footage to take the audience on a journey through the Andean mountains and snowy peaks of Cusco, Peru. The film traverses the director’s reflections on walking as a metaphor for embracing life’s fragility and transformation. By revisiting Andean relational animism, rituals, and pilgrimage, the film interrogates modernity and our place in an era of melting glaciers, while celebrating the shared journey with others.
