A journey to the origins through the encounter with the muleteers, farmers, artisans and artists of the Venezuelan Andes.
In the region of the Venezuelan Andes, trough the stories told by the peasants with fine sense of humor, we will travel backwards in time, following the thread that created the legends, through oral tradition, magic realism and songs that will reveal a collective conscience and the characteristics of their culture.
At the highest point of Venezuela, where the fog envelops the memory of time and the wind whispers ancestral tales, Páramos de Leyendas reveals, through portraits of muleteers and peasants, the courage of those who braved the heights and the relentless cold, often barefoot and wearing only a poncho. In this hostile environment, tough personalities were forged, but with an unparalleled spark of humor and wisdom.
