Un chico corre solo en la selva. Un chico con las piernas cansadas y el coraje transformado en miedo se interna en ese verde que pronto se vuelve negro. Quiere volver a casa, pero está perdido. Intenta protegerse de los peligros que habitan esas tierras, pero la noche no lo hace fácil, ni la lluvia, ni los gritos de su madrastra que aún retumban en sus oídos. Alguien lo mira desde la oscuridad y siente que el miedo se le mete en el pecho y lo oprime por dentro. ¿Es la Dama de la Selva de quien tanto le habla su abuelo?, ¿son los Púcari que vienen por él para convertirlo en uno de sus sirvientes sin ojos? No, es una joven que lo llama desde una pequeña barca. Aún no lo sabe pero juntos atravesarán la selva. Aquel recorrido estará lleno de riesgos escalofriantes, encuentros con misteriosos personajes y recuerdos, recuerdos sobre su madre que murió hace años. Guiados por la luz de una poderosa luna, Manuel y Zuna avanzan por la selva en una noche que parece no tener fin.

English Translation

The Lady of the Jungle

A boy runs alone in the jungle. A boy with tired legs and courage transforms into fear as he enters the green that soon turns black. He wants to go home, but he is lost. He tries to protect himself from the dangers that inhabit those lands, but the night does not make it easy, nor the rain, nor the screams of his stepmother that still echo in his ears. Someone looks at him from the darkness and he feels that fear enters his chest and oppresses him from the inside. Is it the Lady of the Jungle that his grandfather talks about so much? Are they the Púcari who come for him to turn him into one of his eyeless servants? No, she is a young woman who calls to him from a small boat. She still doesn't know it but together they will cross the jungle. That journey will be full of chilling risks, encounters with mysterious characters and memories, memories of his mother who died years ago. Guided by the light of a powerful moon, Manuel and Zuna advance through the jungle in a night that seems to have no end.
