MY MOTHER CURSED MY NAME

A trio of talented narrators brings the story of these independent women to life. When grandmother Olvido dies suddenly, her daughter, Angustias, and granddaughter, Felicitas, travel home. Olvido pesters Felicitas, who is able to see the dead, to improve Angustias's life. Yareli Arizmendi portrays Olvido as she ages from domineering mother to caring grandmother with a deep understanding of complicated family dynamics. Marisa Blake's touching portrayal of Angustias covers both a grieving daughter who is out of time and a mother who is intent on not repeating generational mistakes. Karla Serrato is perfection as angsty Felicitas, who grows from a rebellious child to a loving daughter and granddaughter. This is one family reunion you can't miss!
