Overview

In the Colombian Pacific, a few years ago there were still old people who claimed that the marimba was played in heaven. Currently in Tumaco a touch of marimba, the beating of two conunos, two bass drums and two guasás, on a Saturday night, indicate the celebration of a currulao. In the film, in the midst of currulaos, dance, stories, poetry, colorful choreography and stories are intertwined that depict the daily life of the residents of Tumaco. They are descendants of African slaves.
