Pepero, a 10 year-old boy of a small Andean town, decides to go after his father's steps, who had been missing for some years after he went in search of the mythical city of El Dorado to help the people of the town who had fallen in poverty. Pepero later has a sighting of a golden condor and then finds two weary travelers: an elder named Titicaca, and an amnesiac girl named Kana. Both of them seem to have clues to find the way to El Dorado. Even though his mother doesn't approve, Pepero, Kana and Titicaca begin a long and perilous voyage towards the legendary City of Gold.
