Premise
At the height of the mining boom in the Atacama desert of the 1920s, Mercedes, a humble 16-year-old girl decides to steal a mysterious piece of gold, hoping to use it to negotiate the life of her brother, who has gotten in trouble with the real owner of the gold: the devil under the desert.
