Los Vryosos; A Tale from the Varrio
Description:
A story about struggle and its fallout. The struggle unfolds among the forgotten, invisible people living in en las calles frias of San Antonio varrio. There we find lost youth, hopeless and filled with self hatred, who in just one generation have forgotten the compassion and wisdom of their elders. Now the jovenes fill the jail cells and cemeteries and their roving gangas of brutal thugs bring terror and misery down on the hardworking gente.
Yet from this tempest grows a love story, a story of yearning of hope and meaning. It's the story of Luna and Nazul who've just discovered each other, and of their small clicka of friends, who begin to grasp the power to retrieve what has been lost.
How they change the conciousness of their generation, loosen the grip of terror, and uphold the lessons and honor of their elders will forever change the way you think about the forgotten people living in the shadows of the American dream.
