LIBORIO
In early 20th century, Liborio, a peasant, disappears in a hurricane and returns as a prophet. He says he’s been given a mission: to bring the good and take away the evil, curing the sick and teaching by example. People begin to congregate by his side and they move to the mountains to have total freedom and develop the dream of an independent community. Everything changes when the invading US Marines wants to disarm and disband the community. Liborio wants to avoid a confrontation but knows that they can’t run forever.
Nena’s window
Nena is a Dominican grandmother who has lived in New Jersey for 40 years. She doesn’t move much and spends his days looking out the window, remembering his past, his town, his country. One day, she receives a visit from his grandson, who is also an immigrant and who arrives with a camera on.
