Synopsis
Joaquín Agüil and Victor Jara, cattlemen from the Patagonia region, are hired as sheepherders at a farm in the western United States to herd thousands of sheep. Along with their horses and dogs, they have a mission: to take a thousand sheep to the mountains during the summer and return with that same thousand sheep at the end of the season. They will have to protect the flock against coyotes and cougars, under extreme conditions, in a strange land they thought they would dominate.
