A man founds a village deep in the jungle, and for a hundred years his family repeats its own loves, wars and mistakes while magic drifts through like weather.

Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendia was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice.
