Lucinda y las Flores de la Nochebuena (2016)

The opera unfolds as young Lucinda and her mother make a blanket together. They plan to give it as a gift at a Christmas Eve celebration, but Lucinda’s mother grows very sick and they cannot finish it in time. With help from some mischievous deities, Lucinda ends up attending the celebration alone — with nothing but wildflowers to share. A holiday miracle teaches her that giving from the heart is more important than the gift itself.
