Elderly violin-playing patriarch, Don Plutarco (Angel Tavira) secretly smuggles ammunition and supplies to the local freedom fighters trying to overthrow the government.

"Don Plutarco, his son Genaro and his grandson Lucio live a double life: on one hand they are musicians and humble farmers, on the other they support the campesina peasant guerilla movement's armed efforts against the oppressive government. When the military seizes the village, the rebels flee to the sierra hills, forced to leave behind their stock of ammunition. While the guerillas organize a counter-attack, old Plutarco executes his own plan. He plays up his appearance as a harmless violin player, in order to get into the village and recover the ammunition hidden his corn field. His violin playing charms the army captain, who orders Plutarco to come back daily. Arms and music play a tenuous game of cat-and-mouse which ultimately results in painful betrayal."

"In an unnamed Latin American country, Plutarco, his son Genaro and grandson Lucio lead double lives. On the one hand, they are simple country musicians, but on the other they actively support the peasant guerrilla movement against the oppresive government. When the army occupies their village, the rebels are forced to flee and leave their ammunition behind. Making the most of the fact that he looks like an inoffensive violinist, Plutarco has a plan: to recover the munitions hidden in his cornfield.
