Quepos

Lucca is an anxious soul who grew up in Costa Rica and immigrated to New York. One day he finds himself at a crossroad as his mother suffers a terrible traffic accident. Lucca embarks on a mandatory trip to his home country, where he finds a mysterious tin box hidden in his mother's old house. The tin box brings him back to memory lane, where he discovers unexpected details about his past. The quest for answers delivers new information about his history and a new meaning to family and love! Quepos describes the breathtaking Costa Rican landscape, the Tico culture, and the contrast between the Pura Vida lifestyle and the production-emphasized way of life. Quepos offers a fictional alternative to the true story of Alfred of Prussia, a German prince who fled with his family to Costa Rica to avoid Nazi indoctrination during the second world war.
