A la sombra de un árbol muerto

1873, Santander. Magdalena and Juan are a poor couple whose desire for children remains unfulfilled. A miscarriage shatters their hopes and transforms Magdalena into a somber and unsettling figure. As their situation worsens, Juan decides to take his uncle at his word, and they travel to the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, to change their future. This is the starting point of a narrative that explores migration, revolutionary upheaval, the subjugation of women, and the resistance of the oppressed. From these threads, the enduring wounds that will mark their descendants for generations will be forged.
