On September 19, 2017, a terrible earthquake hit Mexico City. My grandparents lost their apartment. While they took out their things and faced the consequences of such a tragedy; my grandmother and I made a movie; this movie. Telling the story of this queen who faces invisible monsters became the distraction and the perfect escape, a breath of fresh air in the midst of desolation.
