- The sad fate of the last Sun King of the Incas, Atahualpa, lay in the swords of marauding Spaniards. He was beheaded in 1533. Even today the legend goes that Atahualpa hid in the swamps on the western shore of Lake Titicaca, with the fishermen of the Uro, and planned to throw the Spaniards out of the Andes state again. The Uro, who earn their living by fishing in the Altiplano at almost 4000 meters above sea level, emphasize that Atahualpa is a ghost on the almost 300 meters deep bottom of the lake, but nobody has seen it yet. The film is a search for traces on the shores of Lake Titicaca after the legends about the heirs of the Incas.
