You put on the visor and take the body of Colombian cinema pioneer Félix Joaquín Rodríguez, seeing everything through his eyes. He is in Bogota's Bolivar Square, in the middle of the student carnivals: it's the 20's: a complicated period in Colombian history, characterized by social struggle. While he's in the virtual world, he hears his muse Isabel —an ethereal figure that explains him he is about to film his first film and write the story of Colombian cinema. He must search among the multitude for the characters that will appear in Alma provinciana (1926): the worker, the cacique, the student and the peasant. Filming the picture inside the VR experience, the user will also become a cinema pioneer.
