    • Carrying a book of memories of pain, abuse and violence, Morelia is elected Governor of the Embera indigenous community in Luz del Mundo, Antioquia. However, her election comes with two challenges: Defending herself against the threats she receives from men who oppose being ruled by a woman, and finding a missing 13-year-old girl who was forced by her parents to marry one of her teachers.
