“It’s a coming-of-age story, of both the young characters and a society…in a country that was aching after dictatorship.” --filmmaker Dominga Sotomayor
"During the hazy summer of 1990 in Chile in the aftermath of Pinochet’s dictatorship, a small group of families escape the urban excesses of the city to the isolated ecological commune of Peñalolén in the shadow of the Andes. In this time of change and reckoning, 16-year-olds Sofía and Lucas, and 10-year-old Clara, neighbors in this dry land, struggle with parents, first loves, and fear as they prepare for a big party on New Year’s Eve. They may live far from the dangers of the city but not from those of nature."
