When Tito is a child, his grandmother teaches him how to weave
magic around the ones you love in order to keep them close. She is
the master and he is the pupil, exasperating Tito's put-upon mother
who, although exhausted from working long hours, is usually the
focus of their mischief. As Tito grows older and his grandmother's
mind becomes less sound, their games take a dangerous turn. They
both struggle with a particular spell, one that creates an illusion
of illness to draw in love. But as the lines between magic and
childish tales blur, so too do those between fantasy and reality.
In this beautifully told drama of the bond between grandson and
grandmother, JT Torres delicately explores the complexities of
family bonds - in which love is need, and need becomes
manipulation, along with the pain and difficulties of dementia and
mental ill health.
