Synopsis "Canción para caminar sobre las aguas (in Spanish)"

Cristo Pérez y Brando Taberna, dos desarrapados hippies chilenos, están en Arica dedicados a vagar y soñar. Brando, dionisiaco y gozador, escribe poemas; Cristo, en cambio, dedica su vida a pregonar las enseñanzas del evangelio, sin que esto le impida de vez en cuando arrancar algunas bíblicas páginas para fabricarse cigarrillos artesanales. A poco andar se les une Jerónima Monroe, seudónimo de Jerónima Hasbún, una rolliza y licenciosa mujer que se desvive por imitar a la platinada actriz norteamericana, y que lleva a todas partes a su mascota, un ratón blanco bautizado como Joe DiMaggio.
