Set against the backdrop of immigration struggles, the story follows nine-year-old Betita and her mother, who are detained in a family camp after her father is deported. Fleeing violence in Mexico, they sought safety in Los Angeles. As Betita grapples with the harsh realities of their situation, she turns to her imagination and the picture poems her father taught her, finding solace and strength amidst the turmoil. The narrative explores themes of family, resilience, and the impact of immigration policies on vulnerable lives.
