Una Semana reflects on migration as an intimate family inheritance. Through the story of a grandmother who left her home and rebuilt her life in the United States, the film explores how displacement, work-related migration, and exile can shape not only one person’s life, but the emotional memory of future generations.

The film raises awareness around the quiet, often unseen consequences of migration: the sacrifices made for survival, the distance created between generations, and the stories that families carry but do not always know how to speak about. By transforming a personal conversation into cinema, Una Semana invites audiences to consider how individual decisions made under pressure can echo across time, identity, and family history.

At its core, the film is about listening. It uses an intimate intergenerational encounter to create space for memory, healing, and recognition, reminding us that social impact can begin with asking, remembering, and preserving the stories of those who came before us.
