Misael is a woodcutter who lives alone in the Pampas countryside. His existence is reduced to the bare essentials: he cuts down trees, prepares the logs, transports them to sell, and returns to his camp. His daily routine includes hunting for food, cooking over a fire, and listening to the radio, his only connection to the outside world. With no contact with other people, his life unfolds in a cycle that repeats day after day, in silent communion with the nature around him.
