This is the story of a giant who crossed half the country in search of the sun, stolen by a group of demons and hidden in a cave at the bottom of the sea. During his adventurous journey, he will have to pass many difficulties, which he will overcome with the solidary help of the villages he will encounter.

Contents

The Right to Food and Food Sovereignty.
In a very graphic way we talk about the right of all peoples to produce in a sustainable form, respecting the environment and without impositions, foods that want to consume.
We emphasize the importance of working together to overcome the problems and the need to be solidary and helping the neediest people.
