This Award winning play (Premio Nacional de Dramaturgia "Víctor Hugo Rascón Banda" 2005) takes us to the world of two Mexican boys, eleven and eight. Abandoned by their father who crossed the border in search of a better life, the motherless boys stay under the care of their relatives until they decide to go in search of their father in the “Land of Plenty.”   

 

Obra ganadora del Premio Nacional de Dramaturgia "Víctor Hugo Rascón Banda" 2005. Esta obra "de frontera" nos transporta a la visión de dos niños, uno de once y otro de ocho, abandonados por su padre, quien cruzó la frontera para encontrar una mejor opción de supervivencia. Los hermanos huérfanos de madre, se quedan al cuidado de la abuela y luego de los tíos; así pasando de mano en mano hasta que el destino los lleva a un desenlace trágico.
