This song is an invitation to use our voice to unveil our stories, ideas and dreams that have been veiled behind stereotypes or restrictive circumstances, remaining hidden or changed with time. A call for unity and solidarity, among all of us humans. A reflection about our emigrant physical and spiritual journey which is filled with duality: The optimistic side, that embraces hope and aspirations for a better life and the one bearing the struggles, rejections, misunderstandings and nostalgia, that may alienate us, despite our will to continue.
