The Chiloé tradition, the importance of the ancestors and their legends come together in a simple story that shortens the distance between the current and less insular imaginary, and the mysteries that surround Chiloé such as the fantastic Caleuche, still more fantastic illustrated here by Paloma Valdivia.
