The(ir) Blurb...

A hurried businessman befriends a young Latino flower seller. Both have conflicting goals, one in search for family, and the other in search for fortune. Through broken English, the flower vendor convinces the man what is truly important in life, family over business. This short film conveys powerful messages that inspire its audience.
