Maria, a 17-year-old Mayan girl, lives in a small village on the slopes of an active volcano in Guatemala. An arranged marriage awaits her. Although Maria dreams of seeing the city, her status as an indigenous woman does not allow her to go out into that “modern world”. Later, during a pregnancy complication, this modern world will save her life. But at what price?
