Agüizotes: El despertar de la Bruja de la laguna

A breath of eccentricity and folklore follows an iconic and eccentric character, known to some as Macho Ratón. The story goes back to the childhood of a blue-eyed boy who finds an ancient mask, which grants him amazing abilities. Through a life filled with ridiculous and cunning situations, we see how the boy becomes a legendary old man who uses humor and magic as his greatest weapons.

Here by the water, a region of the New World is being affected by a wave of supernatural attacks. Faced with the silence of the gods, a shaman awakens the Agüizotes, binding together the destinies of Nacü, Catalina, Yahuar and Güegüe. Together, they form a resistance that knows and confronts diverse entities of the region, such as the Clanics, the Ancestrals, pagan gods, the Celestials, and other Agüizotes, while also dealing with oppressive tyrants, guardian witches, hordes of goblins, spectral guides, and territorial guardians. In this fight for survival, the four protagonists experience betrayals, turbulent journeys through portals, devastating losses that confront them with their own guilt, and epic battles in an unstable environment marked by the most destructive states of water.
