Synopsis

A journey through the vocation of six shepherds who see how the profession they love comes to an end. A journey over the course of a year that allows us to understand what has brought them there and where they are headed. A reflection on a way of life that tries to preserve an ancient profession that seems to have no place as society evolves.
