Synopsis

"It takes a whole community to raise a child," It's an old African saying. Leopoldo, an 11-year-old boy, tells his life between his parents and the community of artists were he was raised. He is the son of a theater producer and a theater director. Leopoldo is a boy who has grown up surrounded by artists and madmen, in the middle of rehearsals, actors, scenes and costumes. Leopoldo discovers love in a young girl of his poetry class and experiences his first love disappointment. Around him, a varied group of characters will experience love and heartbreak in the season of flowers. From the perspective of a 21st century child, we build an image of new forms of family and of the idea of a community to grow fully.
