Donde cantan las ballenas
Jaramillo Klinkert, Sara
Candelaria is twelve years old and lives with her eccentric family in Parruca, a mythical place lost in the mountains. Her mother talks to the stones, her stepbrother grows magic mushrooms, and her father, an artist who sculpts whales, has abandoned them. While the vegetation devours the house, they receive strange characters: a woman expert in poisonous plants with more than one death in tow, a man who fears lightning, an evicted man who pursues his own death and leaves behind an enigmatic manuscript... Candelaria will try to be accompanied in the search for her father, and this process will reveal the true complexity of life and the vulnerable nature of human beings.
