La Botanica*

by Alex Gonzalez & Gian Arellano

La Botánica is rooted in Cuban culture and folklore, following Carmen, a mother whose refusal to accept her son sets off a haunting chain of consequences. Set inside a botanica, audiences are not just observers but active participants who choose which scenes unfold and steer the story toward one of two possible endings. As Carmen's desperation deepens, the audience must ultimately decide how much empathy she deserves and which fate she has earned.

*Rate R: La Botánica contains strong language, depictions of physical violence, intense psychological themes, strobe lighting, loud sound effects, and disturbing imagery. Recommended for ages 16 and up.
