Comments
director Valerie Weiss Commenting on this project, he spoke as follows:
“I have two daughters between childhood and adulthood, so I couldn’t say no to this story about a twelve-year-old woman who discovers herself through music, friendship, and relationship with a young grandmother growing up. I knew it was an excellent opportunity to make a film on timeless topics and appear to the world as I would like it to be seen by my daughters and their friends. It is a world that reflects the values that make it better, passing through the wonderful music and nostalgia of the legendary nineties past, while they find their own identity. This film teaches us that nothing is lost forever, if you find the courage to come close. “
