All you have to do is imagine-the Omnia superstore has anything you
could ever dream of. Where else but Omnia would a boy go looking to
replace a one-of-a-kind stuffed bunny that happens to be his baby
sister's favorite toy? Scrolling through the online retailer's
extensive inventory, Nico finds what looks like a perfect match,
but the item is lost somewhere in the vast Omnia warehouse. He
doesn't believe it, so he stows away in a shipment being returned
to the warehouse to search for the bunny himself. Nico quickly gets
stranded on the island of Omnia, a fantastical place that does much
more than sell everyday items. It is a hub for a business with
intergalactic reach, and while stray visitors to Omnia are welcomed
warmly, they are not permitted to leave, ever. The adventure of a
lifetime awaits Nico as he searches for the beloved toy and tries
to find a way to return home.

Lupita's hard-knock life has gotten the better of her time and time
again. A childhood robbed of innocence set off a chain of events
that she still has not managed to control, no matter how hard she
tries. Every time she thinks she has a handle on things, unexpected
turns make her question everything, including herself. When Lupita
witnesses the murder of a local politician whom she greatly
admires, the ghosts of her past resurface as she tries to cope with
the present. She quickly falls back into her old self-destructive
habits and becomes a target of Mexico's corrupt political machine.
As the powers that be kick into high gear to ensure the truth
remains hidden, Lupita finds solace in the purity of indigenous
traditions. While she learns how to live simply, like her
ancestors, she comes to understand herself and rediscovers light
within a dark life. And if there is hope for Lupita's redemption,
perhaps there is hope for Mexico.
