Niña No More

By Will Michelet

Ni a No More is driven by a serendipitous and powerful passion
between a Peruvian painter born Sonya Anchay Carrera from the edge of its jungle in
Pucallpa and an architect Michael Camilleri from Houston, Texas. Meeting in the burgeoning
sprawl of its capital Lima just before the U.S. lost its innocence in 9/11, she struggles to
bring Michael into the reality of the modern world in the early decades of the 21st century,
but he proves to be too limited by his privileged position as an American.

When Sonya consoles herself for the inevitable loss of the soulmate she has found by
turning herself over to her other great passion - her love of reproducing the brilliant colors
of her homeland near the Equator through her painting -that ultimately brings her
commercial success as an artist in Paris. While this pursuit not only permits her to go on with
her life, Michael has a harder time finding satisfaction without her through his subsidiary
dream of making music. So, when he tries to recapture the past by scaling a sacred peak of the
Andes in her homeland much later, he discovers that Sonya has always had a rival for her
affections who has finally given her a greater emotional maturity than Michael had ever
possessed, and the three of them happily descend the heights together to build the New City
for the future that must be built.
