Natasha goes to the immigration office in a last-ditch effort to keep her family from being deported. Several coincidences later, she's on the way to an appointment with a lawyer who specializes in immigration issues. She meets Daniel as he is on his way to his favorite ba ...more

A complicated love story
An impossible meeting. An improbable love. An immovable force. An intrinsic desire. An iconic ending. This was a sweet, surprisingly complex love story about the way connections are made and the importance of family, both born and found.
