They came from Abya Yala, but live in Germany. Here, where the streets are gray, but their memories shine in the colors of another land. The sisters, rooted in their heritage, yet always navigating a world that felt almost like home.
La Llorona was with them—not as a ghost of sorrow, but as a voice of resilience, echoing through the stories of their grandmothers. A wanderer, a seeker, a bridge between worlds. Wasn’t she just like them?
Between basketball courts and concrete, they carved out their own belonging, speaking two languages but dreaming in a third. La Llorona was here—not to mourn, but to remind them: You come from two worlds, so you belong everywhere.
