Description

The daily lives of Juan, Rushian and Ivianyd, three Puerto Rican teenagers, is challenged when they decide to participate in a series of workshops to discover their vocational aspirations and overcome personal limitations. The support of new mentors provokes awareness, but moving forward is not so simple. Social, emotional and sexual identity obstacles are part of this choral portrait set on the margins of Caribbean society.
