More than 500 years ago, what we are today began to be created. Our language, our skin, our blood, our unfinished struggle, began in that initial encounter that gave birth to Latin America. Once Upon a Time... And Two Are Three! pays tribute to those original cultures that fused, and intermingled to achieve this wonderful creation. Spain, Africa, and Pre-Columbian America are revealed through their stories, full of magical meaning and popular spirit. This Dominican folktale expresses what we are today.

 

Hace más de 500 años, se empezó a crear lo que somos hoy. Nuestra lengua, nuestra piel, nuestra sangre, nuestra inacabada lucha empezaron en aquel encontronazo inicial que dio a luz a Latinoamérica. Hoy rendimos homenaje, junto a los niños y los jóvenes, a esas culturas originales que, fundidas y entremezcladas, lograron este parto maravilloso. España, África y la América Precolombina se nos muestran aquí a través de sus cuentos, llenos de sentido mágico y espíritu popular. Y al final, la síntesis: un cuento folklórico dominicano que resume y expresa lo que somos hoy.
