Program Note

I have brought to the screen a love story inspired by real events that occurred in 1965, it is the tragic story of the Costa Rican ballet that was heading to Honduras to make a presentation in order to raise funds for an association that fought against the polio, but the bus in which they were transported lost its brakes on a curve and fell off the cliff where 31 people died; among them young members of the ballet, their parents, teachers and companions.
