A Look Inside the Ivy and Bean Film Series
The tale of two friends spans three films and gives wonderful representation for young girls everywhere.

Carla, a young postal worker in Havana, spends her days postmarking thousands of letters and dreaming of the day when she can be reunited with her parents, who moved to Miami when she was fifteen. To fulfill her longing for intimacy, she opens random letters and rewrites them into lyrical prose, believing she is helping her fellow Cubans understand one another better.
