An alligator hunter falls in love with a teacher who has arrived from the west. Rurrenabaque, the town where the story takes place, is at a crossroads between collaborating in the installation of a drinking water system or continuing the tradition of "drinking water from the river." Ruiz uses a historical event to tell a love story (combining his skills as a documentary filmmaker).
