Don Martín Severiano assumes the community position of “rezandero” in Yoloxóchitl, Guerrero, after the mysterious murder of his predecessor Don Alfonso David. He performs the community ceremonies and attends to the people by performing card readings and cleansing. Many who seek him have problems related to violence.
