Overview
Sotavento es la historia de un mundo que se muere, de una generación que necesita inventar sus propias maneras de estar en el mundo o de lo contrario el mundo tal como lo conocen, morirá.
En esta historia ficticia, que tiene mucho de paralelo con nuestra situación actual, Rebeca Stones inventa una isla, Veira, que se enfrenta a su extinción, a una crisis ecológica sin precedentes. Su joven gobernante deberá desterrar todo lo aprendido, incluyendo a su anterior líder, y enfrentarse al reto de salvar a su pueblo. Como sucede en las mejores tragedias, en el camino se conocerá a sí mismo y encontrará el verdadero amor, que a veces se parece demasiado a lo que nos hace ser quien somos.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Sotavento / Leeward tells the story of a dying world and of a generation that must create its own ways of being—or face the death of the world as they know it.
In this fictional narrative, which closely parallels our current reality, Rebeca Stones imagines an island, Veira, on the verge of extinction due to an unprecedented ecological crisis. Its young ruler must cast aside everything they’ve learned—including their predecessor’s legacy—and rise to the challenge of saving their people. Along the way, as in the greatest tragedies, they will come to know themselves and discover true love—a love that often mirrors the essence of who we truly are.
