Everything happens very fast in Lima in the summer of 1992. In the midst of Peru’s social and political chaos, Lucia and Aurora are about to leave their country forever with their mom – and they need their absent father to sign their exit papers. It’s been convenient for Carlos to not be a dad, but now, if he wants his daughters' love, he has to earn it and his place in their lives before they leave.
This story was an opportunity to explore the challenges of childhood and parenthood through a planned departure, addressing the complexity of leaving one's home country and separation as a compromise between pain and hope.
