A coming-of-age adventure following a young paperboy's quest to find buried treasure using his grandfather's map, grounded in Paraguayan history and family legacy.

Los Buscadores tells the story of Manu, a young paperboy who lives in the Chacarita neighborhood. He receives an old map, a gift from his grandfather, and embarks on the adventure of finding a treasure called "Plata Yvyguy", gold and jewels buried by families in Paraguay's 1864-70 War of the Triple Alianza.
