World Premiere

A gritty depiction of survival alongside a tumultuously changing city.

After having just moved to Brooklyn from South America, Marta (Blanca Lewin) quickly becomes exploited by both the city and her roommate’s brother, Eddie. Otherwise alone, she waits anxiously for her Chilean boyfriend, Alvaro, to arrive in the city, alleviate her homesickness, and piece her world back together.

However, once Alvaro arrives in the city only to break up with her, Marta must summon her previously unexplored inner-strength to stand on her own two feet against her perpetually changing new home and those who have wronged her.

Lewin, South American star and two-time winner of the APES award for Best Actress, perfectly captures the heart and soul of Marta in this empowering look at one female’s maturation from dependent girlfriend to self-sufficient woman.
