“Where do you call home?” was the question faced by nearly 3,000 Spanish children exiled in the Soviet Union during the Spanish Civil War. This film tells the story of Angelita Perez, who lived in Russian boarding schools from ages 4 to 24 until completing her medical studies. It’s a tale of resilience, love, and identity, intertwining past and present. It also explores the bond between a mother and daughter through shared songs and stories.
