Odilia and her four sisters have been
struggling since their father left to pursue his music career. Their mom works
long hours at a restaurant to support them. When they find a dead man by the
creek with a photo of his family in his wallet, they are determined to reunite
them in Mexico.
With La Llorona serving as Odilia’s guide, the girls set off on an adventure
that combines elements of Aztec mythology with Homer’s Odyssey.
