The emergence of her powers takes her by surprise, as it all happens during a chaotic time in her life, when she is being bullied at school. In the midst of an attack, her classmates force her to eat dirt, and this apparently activates her gifts.
The story features a large cast, including: Lilith Curiel, Gerardo Taracena, Harold Torres, Hugo Albores, Max Pena, Ivan Martz, Roberto Aguilar, Mabel Cadena, Yalitza Aparicio, Clementina Guadarrama, Juan Daniel Garcia Trevino, Lizeth Selene Juarez Castro, Luis Curiel, Sayuri Ramirez, and Ruben Albarran.
We spoke with the young stars of this story, who collectively defend the work they have done. They emphasize that, beyond highlighting the problem of violence and disappearances in Mexico, the plot of this story seeks to show how solidarity and sisterhood can lead us all to choose to be heroes, even if our abilities aren't supernatural.
What do we know about Aylin and her environment in “Cometierra”? Our young teenager comes from an impoverished neighborhood on the outskirts of Mexico City. Her life changes when, after eating dirt, she begins to receive visions of people who have been in that same place; this is how she manages to follow the trail that leads her to search for her missing teacher.
