Description: "Lucía turns eighteen surrounded by her lifelong friends and three close figures: her official boyfriend, her true love, and a secret lover. But it is only when she blows out her eighteen candles that she first discovers La Rara. Little by little, Lucía is cast out—by friends, boyfriends, family, and even her city. And in this constant displacement, she stumbles upon an unexpected boy who helps her perceive the vital subtlety of community, solidarity as a talent, and the landscape as salvation—all within a stormy city that serves as the backdrop for this extraordinary yet magically ordinary love story. La Rara is a romantic comedy—with subtle political echoes—that delves into the discovery of love: a love that is both personal and collective, shared among all those who, at some point, have had to leave their surroundings in order to find themselves."
