Logline

A tale of three sisters, the tragedy they face, and their discovery of the ties that bind

***

Synopsis

❝ Don't you see the starlight? ❞

Silken words, woven like wool, sweet as honey on the tongue, woo an unconscious mind, yet Elena Castellanos possesses anything but.

Intelligent, determined, autonomous.

She only ever wanted one thing: escape from Rockport.

When it dangles within her grasp, she takes it without a second thought.

Those come later.

❝ Don't you dream impossible things? ❞

Music speaks without words, comprehensible to all, yet Mariana Castellanos wonders how to express her precise emotions.

Assertive, motivated, empathetic.

She only ever wanted one thing: an unbroken family.

When it shatters, she finds herself helpless, astray with no anchor.

Just like her sister.
