From the Streets of Chambers Lane

by Daniel Maldonado

Overview

After the Mendoza family unexpectedly loses their youngest son, Michael, they each face a different type of adversity.

From spiritual struggles and disillusionment to family rivalries and quirky social interactions, each family member deals with the aftermath of Michael's death differently. Jose Luis is the black sheep of the family, while Lucia is their religious, fanatical matriarch. Finally, there's the detached and nascent Daniel, and a host of extended family members and friends.

Will they be able to overcome the loss, and move forward in their lives?
