Two brothers, ages 14 and 12, work deep inside the ancient silver mines of Cerro Rico, Bolivia. They are being raised without a father, and must work the dangerous mines to support their family and to pay for supplies vital to their education. In spite of the daily hazards and the long hours they must work inside the mine, they dream of saving enough money for an education that will lead to a better life.
