Les Sept plumes de l'aigle

Synopsis of Les Sept plumes de l'aigle

Luis A. was born in Argentina. Before leaving this world, his mother, a Quechua Indian, bequeathed him an age-old knowledge. Is it to find her that Luis, very young, went on the roads? The initiation begins in the ruins of Tiahuanaco, where the teenager meets El Chura, a shaman, "man with fox plumage". He will launch his disciple in search of the seven feathers of the eagle, the seven secrets of life. This meeting will lead to others: that of the "guardian of time", that of old Chipès, that of Doña María, that of love, which is the first mystery of the world. Luis A. is not a character in a novel. This strange, tormented quest for knowledge and light took place, one day, once, between the Sierra Grande, the streets of La Paz and the Machu Picchu plateau.
