Synopsis
It is the 1960s, a turbulent era of movements demanding a different way of life and a new scale of values, but the streets of the Bronx know nothing of colorful revolutions. There, the emotional speeches championed by opinion leaders sound like echoes from an imaginary world.
Chris is a teenager living through his time, but reality confronts him with countless existential doubts. He searches for his path while the world changes around him. He has learned to accept events as they come because he has no other choice. He believes in the education instilled in him by his family and in traditional values. He has two friends, Trevor and Jacob, who follow him everywhere, but a terrible and unexpected event will shake their friendship to its core. Chris, Trevor, and Jacob are beings trapped between feelings of guilt and purposes of redemption, marked by a singular destiny that condemns them and before which they must face the consequences of their actions.
About Juan José Villegas López
Soy Juan Villegas, me formé en los años 80, leyendo aquella literatura Pulp que inundaba los kioscos de literatura de bajo precio, de fácil adquisición y lectura ágil y directa. Pronto me di cuenta de que quería dedicarme a ello en cuerpo y alma, y que, si no podía hacerlo profesionalmente, al menos haría de ello mi vocación. Un escritor debe tener claro lo que pretende transmitir, y para que su historia se entienda e interese, esta debe ser algo ameno, comprensible y adaptado al lector; ese es el fundamento de la comunicación, porque la escritura es magia creativa; los escritores tienen un contrato con su público, cada escritor es un creador de mundos y de historias, una mente activa y observadora distinta del resto, es por eso que llevamos la magia dentro, no importa nuestro estatus ni profesión.
