Beskrivelse

It tells the story of a young girl who embarks on a journey with her father to discover her native country, Venezuela, which she had not had the chance to return to since she had to emigrate to Spain as a baby.

During her travels, she will encounter a society deeply divided by radicalism, hatred, and political fanaticism.

She will learn about social inequalities, the vast gap between the rich and the poor, the causes and consequences of crime, insecurity, food shortages, and the idolatry and exaltation of figures like Simón Bolívar, Fidel Castro, and Hugo Chávez.

Through her interactions with people, she will learn about the causes and consequences of contemporary Venezuelan history, the deep-rooted reasons for the divided factions, and the most significant social and political events, drawing her own conclusions from them.

At the same time, she will try to offer, through her childlike ideas, a way out of the confusion, hatred, and ideological intolerance.

Additionally, she will learn firsthand about the tragedy known as 'The Cantaura Massacre' and its connection to the terrible fates that befell her own family..
