Cien cuyes

When Eufrasia Vela starts working as a caregiver for the elderly, she does not suspect that her trade will lead her to an existential crossroads. The intimate relationship that she maintains with Doña Carmen, Dr. Harrison and The Magnificent Seven - endearing characters that take over her thoughts and affection - forces her to reconsider her role as mother and sister, the vicissitudes of longevity, the forms of compassion and the surprising value that guinea pigs, those peculiar guinea pigs, acquire in their moral budget. Accompanied by a soundtrack where huayno, jazz, ballads and pop resound, the story of One Hundred Guinea Pigs rescues at the same time the imprint of cinema as a counterpoint to the existence of its characters and a source of revelations about the meaning of life and death when it approaches.
