Description
Kino, a poor Indian pearl-diver, discovers an extraordinary pearl that he believes will change his life. With dreams of marrying Juana in church and sending their son Coyotito to school, Kino's hopes rise. However, the pearl brings out the worst in those around him, leading to greed, fear and violence. As Kino faces mounting challenges and moral dilemmas, he becomes increasingly consumed by his desires. The story explores themes of wealth, ambition and the impact of colonialism on indigenous communities.
