Rocio likes to walk with her father a half mile down the hill from their home to a greenhouse rose farm. He lets her pick early-blooming buds while he stakes, straightens, weeds and waters the flowers that are destined for countries where he can’t go. Such as the United States.
A Rocio le gusta caminar con su papá desde su casa a los invernaderos de rosa en los cuales el trabaja. Mardoqueo la deja agarrar las pequeñas rosas mientras él endereza, quita las malas hierbas y riega las flores que serán exportadas a países a los cuales no puede ir, como EEUU.

In the mornings in the Guatemalan Highlands, Rocio begs her father to let her come to work with him at the rose farm. He says “No, my love” many times before he says “Yes.” #borderofdreamsmovie
