Summary of La Vendedora De Rosas
In the two days leading up to Christmas, a thirteen year-old Monica, a Colombian street kid, tries to sell roses for money. Surrounded by a group of fellow runaways and orphan who all get by through robbery, prostitution, and drugs--mainly sniffing glue, Monica anticipates the holiday, hoping that there will at least be some sort of party to attend. Victor Gaviria's look at life on the streets of Latin America is fascinating, bleak, and uncompromising look at an often forgotten population.
