After the right to life and liberty comes the right to dream! María is a teenage farmer with a thousand dreams for her future. Jose is her boyfriend. María?s family doesn?t approve of their relationship. Her life changes drastically when her dreams and hopes are not realized (and not precisely because of her family issues). This film is based on real life stories about growing up in a war-trodden country like Colombia.

Mexico will no longer exist!

¡Aoquic iez in Mexico! ¡Ya México no existirá más!

A frenetic view runs over a convulsed Mexico City, a colossal metropolis sustained by the myth of "mestizaje" and other colonial forms of violence. Past and present weave a flurry of images; fragmented memories of this land. Ancient deities are incarnated, while dreams overlap among intimacy, complicity and the tumult. This is an erratic film that invites us to reimagine the complex relationship we have with the constructed “mexicanidad.”
