A shadow flies through the dense, dark clouds of sunset. He takes refuge in an ancient temple just before the arrival of the storm. Inside the temple it will begin a hypnotic journey through dark corridors, galleries full of memories and images, forests of dead trees and places forgotten by memory. This story narrates in a trance way certain moments in the life of the great Mexican artist Frida Kahlo.
