In 1975, Oscar-winning French director Pierre-Dominique Gaisseau travelled to Panama to film the Guna community, where women are sacred. He lived there for a year together with his wife, and his daughter Akiko. They ended up penniless, and the bank confiscated the footage they had filled in. 50 years later, the Guna men and women are still waiting to see "their" film, a legend which has been passed on to new generations. One day, a copy appears in Paris.
