Set in the northern state of Sonora, Mexico, Jerem\u00edas, a misfit eight-year-old, realises he is a gifted child and initiates a journey of self-discovery to find out what he wants to be when he grows up. When an opportunistic physiologist makes contact with Jerem\u00edas, a new world of experiences opens up to him, but for that he is taken away from his ignorant and poor family whom he loves.<\/p>\n
