La Sombra del Caminante plot
Mañe has serious financial problems, has lost his leg and cannot find a job. He can't pay his rent, and is the target of ridicule. While wandering the streets trying to scrape together money, he encounters a very unusual figure, a man who transports people on his back through downtown Bogotá for 500 pesos a ride. They become friends and make each other's lives more bearable. Both have a violent past that all Colombians share. This past binds and separates them, showing them as people who have lost everything but the hope of starting over.
