His very personal musical style, characterized by a distinguished tuning and special playing technique, is the subject of this film. When he´s playing, we hear what seems to be the sound of two guitars. What´s his secret? And will he take it to the grave, or will he pass it on to the next generation? Rumour has it that he learned his unique style from Peloncho, a sinister figure whom everybody has heard of but nobody has ever met. Peloncho is said to have sold his sold to the devil.
