In the midst of his family’s seasonal migrations across the United States, Mr. Venecia returns to the mesquite tree behind his grandparents’ South Texas home.

This is a wonderful show! It touches upon latino culture and mores, the strength of the human spirit and the way music can touch and transform life.
