Luis Toñac (Carlos Arreaza), a renowned scientist and researcher, heads to a village with anthropologist Amelia (Ligia Petit) to investigate the appearance of dead animals without a drop of blood in their bodies.

The scientist downplays the possibility, considering it part of local mythology, similar to the legend of the death of a pre-Columbian princess who was reincarnated as his coworker.
