HUESERA

Valeria’s joy at becoming pregnant with her first child is quickly taken away when she’s cursed by a sinister entity. As danger closes in and relationship with her family become fractured, she’s forced deeper into a chilling world of dark magic that threatens to consume her. A group of witches emerge that could be her only hope for safety and salvation, but not without grave risk.

“Huesera explores the idea that what appears to be the ideal of happiness, that which is so familiar, pastel-colored, luminous, and musically harmonious, can result horrific for certain people. In contrast, what appears to be subterranean, discrepant, noisy, and somber, for some can mean freedom. The arrival of la ‘huesera’ in Valeria’s life causes her perception of familiarity to be progressively altered, confronting her with atmosphere that go throng the uncomfortable and reach the sinister.”
