Set in the mid-twentieth century Bible Belt South, the story explores a forbidden love between a privileged white girl and a dark-skinned Latino boy, highlighting the stark racial divides of their time. Their innocent connection is encapsulated in a school waltz they are not allowed to share, symbolizing the societal constraints imposed on their relationship. The backdrop of their worlds reflects deep-rooted prejudices, while the boy's heritage as the grandson of a Mexican revolutionary adds layers to their struggle against discrimination.
