Selene Esperanza Alvarez the Writer/Director of this film created it as a way to let out her frustrations towards those unable to accept people for who they are and love.

We had no budget and shot this film within two nights in mid April. We're very excited to finally share it with you all and tell Elena’s story, the story of many queer people especially within the Latinx community.

To anyone who has come out or is coming out, in case no had told you, we're very proud of you. Please never be ashamed of who you are!!
