Ausencio secretly nurtures his desire to one day
become a drag performing artist. When a drag queen invites him to join
her show and his father discovers his secret, he is forced to decide
whether he will pursue his dream or remain on his family farm to fulfill
what is expected of him. In the end, he learns that he doesn't have to
leave all that is known to him to be himself.
This charming and thought-provoking film comes to New Hope Film Festival as a joint production that originated in Mexico and the United States, a fitting metaphor for warm relations between these neighboring countries. This is Executive Producer and Director Juan Gil Garcia's first project.
