Ari and the Day of the Dead


Ari lives with her family in the outskirts of Mexico-City. Last year her grandpa Pedro died. She misses him badly, but this November the 12 years old girl hopes to meet him again - at the Day of the Dead, the annual celebration of those who passed away. Mexicans believe that the souls of the dead visit the families of the bereaved to be close to them. Ari wants to welcome her grandpa with a very special gift.
