Tamales de Piña
by Marielle Vizcarra
“No dejes que su tristeza te hunda cuando la tuya apenas flota.”
Each year Cecilia and her family get together in remembrance of her son, Samuel. And every year the reunion turns into a chaotic family feud, filled with unspoken feelings, mental health taboos, and guilt. This not-so-functional family must deal with tremendous loss, while trying to accommodate each other’s unique way of coping. Trigger warning: Subject matter includes discussion of suicide.
