In the land of Elflán, life and beauty flourish. We meet Adelita, an adventurous and curious young elf eager to find what lies beyond the horizon. When the evil spirit of La Mancha kidnaps her mother and destroys her home, Adelita is forced to travel north to the land of the Hadaseñas in hopes of being reunited with her again. Using fairy tales and mythological themes, Little Duende comments on real-world matters as it explores the border crisis, dual citizenship, and the consequences of a dark family secret.

Synopsis:
A young Mexican girl in Queens wants to try out for the school's talent show featuring her recently deceased father's music— Son Jarocho—the typical music of Veracruz, Mexico. After a series of encounters with the school bullies, she decides to immerse herself in her father's story (based on musical composer's book "Zoongoro Bailongo") and remind the people of her school, that music is indeed, the universal language. |
