In Few Blue Skies, high school senior Paloma struggles as her hometown is endangered by the Selva corporation and their massive smog-producing warehouses. Paloma’s mother wants to move, but Paloma is determined to stay—because when the smog clears, there is still hope. That hope drives Paloma to reconnect with her ex-boyfriend Julio and challenge the dangers that Selva brings to communities like their own. Can Paloma stop Selva from destroying everything they know?
