Storyline

In a small town classroom, students discover that their beloved teacher, Celeste, will soon be leaving. What unfolds is a tender, poetic portrait of transition, captured during a single September of movement, memory, and small revelations. La Falla gives voice to children not through dramatics, but through moments of honesty and wonder. Alana Simôes captures the emotional power of the everyday in this quiet ode to growth, endings, and the fragile bonds of early childhood.

En una pequeña escuela de pueblo, los alumnos descubren que su querida maestra Celeste pronto se irá. Lo que sigue es un retrato delicado y profundamente humano de la infancia, el cambio y la despedida. La Falla observa con sensibilidad un mes de septiembre lleno de pequeños gestos, revelaciones y emociones. Una mirada íntima al poder de los vínculos que nacen en el aula.
