SYNOPSIS
10-year-old Messi just lost her mother. By substituting herself for her brother, she failed a ritual that was supposed to save her mother from illness - because only a boy could accomplish it. Messi reads the resentment in the eyes of her grandmother and rebels inwardly against the God who makes such unjust laws. She then begins to reinterpret the meaning of the divine commandment.
