This film tells the story of one of them, Angelita Perez, who lived in Russian boarding schools from ages 4 to 24 until completing her medical studies in Moscow. It is a tale of resilience, love, and identity, intertwining past and present, history and memory. It also explores the bond between a mother and daughter - the director and her mother - through shared songs and stories. Revisiting Angelita's journey is both a tribute to her strength and a declaration of love. Written by
