synopsis
Santiago, 2006. Amid student protests and the reggaeton boom, 15-year-old Antonia, an only child raised by her single mother, finds solace in dancing. To go on her dream study trip to Argentina, she needs her father’s signature—except she’s never met him. When her mother, Mariana, refuses to help, Antonia embarks on a secret search. With the unexpected help of her half-sister, Tamara, she sets out to meet the man she only knows by name. The journey leaves her more confused than ever, but one thing becomes clear: she owes everything to her mother—and she is no longer an only child.
