amémonos // let us love each other

karina.
she protects me.
she holds my soul.
y en los momentos 
[and in the moments]
cuando tengo más miedo,
[i feel most afraid, she. . .]
ella. . .

eulalia.
se levanta tu alma al cielo. . .
[lifts your soul into the sky. . .]

Untimely. Uncertain. Unrequited. Unemployed. When newly discarded graduate Karina Inés makes an inconvenient pilgrimage back home, Kari is surprised to find Abuela Eulalia exactly as she was six years prior. Trapped between lost languages, time & house keys, Kari and Eulalia are confronted with a choice; reckon with the ghost of a secret unrequited or lose each other in the haze of an uncertain future.
