Synopsis

“Lavenla awoley ta isla, manejla halawoley, tapta yhej ihisetlhalá.”
Your hair will be beautiful like the branches of a tree. Never let anyone cut it.

Yola´s hair is thick and black and cascades down to her hips. She is working as a housekeeper in a Catholic family with many children. Their stressed-out mother is determined to throw an extravagant Quinceañera, one that the entire village will never forget, for her daughter Antonella. The garden, the food and the dress, everything needs to be perfect. If only Antonella had naturally beautiful hair like Yola´s. That true beauty comes from within is something Anto´s mother fails to understand.
