Overview
La vida de Emilia Agostini, la piloto más joven de Chile, se derrumba cuando su padre muere en un accidente de aviación. El sueño que compartían era hacer el viaje mítico de Amelia Earhart, la piloto estadounidense cuyo avión desapareció misteriosamente en 1936. Tras la muerte de su padre, Emilia pierde la fe en sí misma e intenta suicidarse.
Es así como llega a la clínica de Las Flores, donde conoce a Gabriel, un genio matemático y el chico más guapo que ha visto nunca. Con él conocerá el amor. También encontrará la amistad de Gogo, un chico gay, de Clara, una joven poeta, y de Domi, una ex modelo que ha pasado por las drogas. Juntos intentarán salir de la oscuridad de sus sentimientos.
Hace exactamente veintidós días, nueve horas y ocho minutos que desapareciste. Pero yo sé que estás ahí, en algún lugar, peleando con los fantasmas que saquean tu cabeza. Y aun cuando no puedo verte, no dejaré de buscarte. No dejaré que te esfumes como esas nubes que mirábamos juntos deshacerse en el cielo.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A captivating, heartrending adventure that delves into the lives of four young people.
The life of Emilia Agostini, Chile’s youngest pilot, is shattered when her father dies in an airplane accident. The dream they shared was to make the mythical journey of Amelia Earhart, the American pilot whose plane disappeared mysteriously in 1936. After her father’s death, Emilia loses faith in herself and attempts suicide.
This is how she arrives in the Las Flores clinic, where she meets Gabriel, a mathematical genius and the most handsome boy she’s ever met. With him she will experience love. She will also find the friendship of Gogo, a gay boy; Clara, a young poet; and Domi, an ex-model and drug user. Together, they try to escape the darkness of their emotions.
It’s been exactly twenty-two days, nine hours, and eight minutes since you disappeared. But I know that you’re there, somewhere, fighting with the ghosts who ransack your mind. And even when I can’t see you, I won’t stop looking for you. I won’t let you vanish like those clouds we watched disappear in the sky together.
