In an isolated mountainous location that is difficult to access and almost 2,000 meters above sea level, the Zitlaltepec community is the "Casa de Justicia" where prisoners condemned to the heaviest sentences undergo their re-education. This young Mixtec is serving time for parricide. The community policemen have asked him to sing a Mixtec song.
