Synopsis

Thomas works for an international company stripped the feeling of caring for the natural resources of this country as any other. He is send to Patagonia (Peninsula Valdes) in order to investigate and gain the consensus of the people to enable the installation of a huge detriment of tourism development in regional economies. After starting to relate to the generosity of the people and begin to discover a wonderful world he did not know, is unmasked by a naive subject (Captain Morel), apparent owner and master of the place. Thomas is exposed without malice and in conditions of despair over the failure of his mission. As a last resort he meets as a man familiar with the place (Joseph), but ignorant in the art of writing, with whom he establishes a form of exchange of knowledge essential for everyone. Thomas teaches to write and read and Joseph teaches him the wisdom of years of experience with wildlife and landscapes of the environment. From here they establish an exchange relationship where an incredible friendship grows
