Synopsis

This is a power house of a story equally packed with action and emotion. Often people's lives reflect the weather, such as hurricanes, and As The Tortilla Burns is such a story. It isn't all sweet and harmonious like invented stories, but tastes of disappointment, obstacles and bewilderment, of madness and dreams like the lives of real people who no longer lie to themselves, learning invaluable lessons about life. With blessings, angels, empathy and compassion she finds herself on a journey to the depths of her soul and with the will and courage to survive, she leaves behind everything she once held dear in a harrowing true story of discovery and transformation.
