Bittersweet Memories of Last Spring

Beschreibung

In 1980, seventeen-year-old Yrvin Lacroix sails from Haiti to Miami, leaving behind his childhood sweetheart, Régine, with a promise to return. In Miami, he falls for Michaela, a fellow student who shares his dreams of a better future. But when Régine unexpectedly appears in the city, Yrvin is forced to confront the pull of old promises against the demands of new love and ambition. Set against the vibrant yet challenging backdrop of 1980s Miami, Bittersweet Memories of Last Spring is a coming-of-age story of love, sacrifice, and cultural identity. Yrvin's struggle to balance passion with his pursuit of education reflects the resilience and choices of an immigrant chasing the American Dream.
