When tragedy strikes, 16 year old, América Campos is sent to Argentina to live with her anti-American grandmother Lucía América. América struggles to find her place with a grandmother she has never known and to hold onto a friendship with Sergio, a neighbor twice her age.

A broken heart makes Sergio reject the city......A city full of late adolescents, girls that make you cry, drunks worried about matters they couldn´t handle even sober...and songs that say all that they would have wanted to say (if they knew that they needed to say something)
