During the last 5 years, tourism in Argentina and the world is one of the fastest growing industries in a sustained and constant. This is a story that has as context the different possibilities of dealing with an activity that can be of vital importance for a country and its recognition in the world. The way a people is appropriate in this industry is how you feel as a people and protect their territory and natural resources. The address style as a form of tourism and its social and moral implications is a structural part of this script, where, through the story of two characters, antagonistic principle, representatives of different worlds, then unify against the threat of the destruction of moral values and natural territorial membership. Tomas works in an international company bereft of a sense of caring for the natural resources of this country as anybody else. Under a cloak of deceit will send a Patagonian region in order to investigate and get the consensus of the people to achieve the installation of a giant tourist venture at the expense of regional economies. After you begin to relate to the generosity of the people and begin to discover a wonderful world that never heard, innocently unmasked a subject, lord and master apparent place. Tomas is exposed without malice and in conditions of despair and injury over the failure of his mission. As a last resort known as a scholar familiar circumstance of the place, but ignorant in the art of writing, with whom he establishes a way of sharing knowledge for everyone. Tomas teaches you to write and read and Jose teaches the wisdom of years of experience with wildlife and landscapes of the environment. From here we establish a relationship of exchange where grows a bond with which they learn to combine both knowledge against the hegemonic power of money indiscriminately.
