Curtains of Rain - Cortinas de Lluvia

Solitaria Gaviota-Alaniz is a girl on the margins, growing up in a border town while navigating the complexities of familial relationships, environmental racism, and a queer secret that threatens to cleave her from those she cherishes most. Eventually, towing the line becomes untenable, and after a traumatic exorcism, Sol is forced to flee from everything she has ever known.
Fifteen years later, Solitaria returns to confront the ghosts of homophobia haunting her past. Supported by a found familia of gay tíos, her gender-expansive best friend Toni, and a diverse community of panederas and drag queens in San Antonio, Sol embarks on a search and rescue mission for her lost self. Soaked in vibrant landscapes of identity and resilience, Curtains of Rain details one woman's coming-of-age between cities, between cultures, and between budding loves.
