What is Lola's Fandango about?
Lola often feels invisible beside her talented older sister, Clementina. Then she discovers a pair of her mother’s old flamenco shoes and learns that Mami once danced too. With secret lessons from Papi, Lola practises rhythm, footwork and the fiery spirit called duende. But when her family gathers to celebrate Mami’s birthday, Lola must find the courage to dance in front of everyone. A joyful story about family, self-expression and discovering a talent that is uniquely your own.
