En la boca de la noche

2019 · 10 min

Micaela (12) is desperately searching for a way to escape the place where she's being held captive. The arrival of Yaqui (13) jeopardizes her escape plan. Micaela realizes that Yaqui is in the same predicament, but she prefers the new life she's been offered: education and a salary for domestic work in the capital. Soon, they both discover that they will actually be sold, and there will be no work, no salary, and no schooling. From that moment on, they join forces to escape, but only one will make it out alive.
