América

Every day, 10-year-old América (Kichwa) treks more than two hours from her isolated village in the Peruvian Andes to reach school. The threat of failing the year looms if she's late again. To ensure she arrives on time, América decides to purchase a bicycle. While trying to earn the money, she embarks on an incredible journey that leads to self-discovery, empowerment, and a newfound appreciation for her culture.
