About this Event

As his child turns 18 and prepares for college, Rafael-James “RJ” Aquino is forced to confront the dreams he left behind after immigrating to America at the same age. Believing he has failed to provide the life he sacrificed his youth for, RJ clings to his family as the one thing he can still hold together. But as his loved ones look towards a future beyond their home, RJ must face the possibility that his world is moving forward without him. With the days before their departure counting down, RJ is forced to confront his grief, pride, and the dreams he abandoned.
