Amigo's Blue Guitar

By Joan Macleod

A college student's life is given meaning when he chooses to sponsor Elias, a Salvadoran refugee, as a class project. When Elias arrives, his hosts Sander and his family learn what it means and feels to be a refugee and how to relate to someone who has endured such intense personal grief. The warmth and humour of the characters invite us to embrace the situation--be at once moved and threatened by it--and to consider how we ourselves would react. Cast of 2 women and 3 men.

Amigo's Blue Guitar

This story of a student who moves to Canada from a dangerous life in El Salvador is very entertaining. Although short I reccommend it be checked out by anyone, it has something for you all.
