| Synopsis |
This summer nothing seems to be the same. Jorgelina's whole family is changing. Her parents are fighting and her twelve year old sister Luciana has moved out of their bedroom and started locking the bathroom door. Worst of all, Luciana refuses to play in La Boyita, the camping trailer that was their favorite hideout, their shared secret. Concerned with the girls' fighting and recognizing their own problems, Jorgelina's parents decide to spend their summer apart. Jorgelina goes with the father to the country and begins to uncover a secret. She will push for answers she is too young to know and will unveil secrets held silent too long. La Boyita, once a warm nest, will be shaken and turned inside out.
