Rául Camilo weaves three stories about the challenges faced by disabled children and their parents in his feature debut. Ana, mother of two autistic sons, struggles daily with the misconceptions her neighbors and relatives have about autism. Jorge and Diana are finally going to be parents after trying for so long; they will now have to give their disabled son the same love they feel for each other. Luis, a young man with Down’s Syndrome, who earns a spot in the Special Olympics Latin America to be held in Puerto Rico, receives training from his estranged father.
