Covered Paces

Description

A valentine to big city life and the Latina-American experience, COVERED PACES follows failed actress Linette Velazco from Los Angeles to Miami and Boston to Panamá, as she swears off love to jumpstart a financial planning career. Along the way, her family’s pressure to excel mounts, and a constellation of characters threaten her new resolve and reshape the knotted definitions of “monogamy” and “true love” in modern-day relationships.
