“Nuestra Señora de las Nubes”
Una travesía mágica entre la memoria y el olvido, donde los exiliados inventan sus patrias y los recuerdos son la única tierra posible. En este pueblo suspendido en el aire, las casas tiemblan de soledad, las flores brotan en las ramas secas de la nostalgia y los corazones laten al ritmo de amores imposibles.

A través de diálogos cargados de humor, ternura y dolor, descubrirás que en la absurda belleza de lo cotidiano habitan las más grandes verdades. Ven a sumergirte en esta fábula sobre el exilio, la identidad y el eterno deseo de volver a un lugar que tal vez… nunca existió.

Through dialogues filled with humor, tenderness, and sorrow, you will discover that within the absurd beauty of everyday life lie the deepest truths. Step into this poetic fable about exile, identity, and the eternal longing to return to a place that perhaps… never really existed.
