Haitian couple Esther and Junior undertake a journey to the northern part of the American continent with Esther’s daughters, Flor and Aisha. They are in pursuit of a better future. In Mexico, they settle in a remote forest where illegal logging shapes both the lives of the people and the fragile forest that surrounds them. As Junior grapples with the weight of his past and the family searches for their place in this unfamiliar environment, Esther becomes their anchor, cultivating moments of peace and care even as the world around them begins to fracture. Surrounded by monarch butterflies, the family discovers in this forest a fleeting but powerful place of love and resilience.
