'Volador' explores the power of acceptance.

'Volador' explores the power of acceptance. Mateo, an 18 year old from Mexico, fights his way through challenges that arise in a place (Grand Rapids) he would describe as dull. He works as a part-time cashier and commercial photographer for Supermercado Mexico. While living in a house that's constantly throwing parties, he feels lost and is tempted to leave his dreams for America behind by retreating back to Morelia, Mexico. With the help of his friends Aliyah (Gabi Salazar) and Dbo (Brian Shannon) he finds a new perspective.
