After a year of drought, Nicolas and Pablo, best friends, prepare for “The Tigers’ Fights”, a prehispanic ritual where the village men fight each other to imitate thunder and foster the rain, hope of a good harvest. Some of the tigers also deliver commitment flowers to a girl as a sign of love. This year, Nicolas has decided to offer flowers not to a girl, but to Pablo.
