Tarro vacío follows the story of a young indigenous man who sees joining the military as an opportunity to improve his life and help his family. During medical examinations, a substance scientifically labeled as cocaine was detected in his system, which prevented him from enlisting. Vitilio Iyokina Gittoma’s short film exposes the gap between ancestral knowledge and the scientific world, revealing an institutionalism that ignores the spiritual importance of the practices surrounding the coca leaf.
