When Sonia learns of her son’s decision to leave college, enlist in the military and fight against terror in Afghanistan in the weeks following 9/11, memories of her own childhood overwhelm her. She struggles to reconcile being forced as a young girl to leave Cuba at the dawn of
Fidel Castro’s rule with her own responsibilities as a mother facing uncertainty.
Sonia must find a way to come to terms with her past, her lost parents, her own children and
her adopted country - or risk losing everything that she loves.
