Overview

Lila is an “invisible.” She prefers to live a quiet, unnoticed, drama-free life. She does her schoolwork, helps out at home, and never rocks the boat. One day, by chance, she stumbles upon the masked world of lucha libre, and as she increasingly steps away from her comfort zone, she discovers that she enjoys the action and excitement of the ring. But will her newfound confidence allow her to find her voice and stand up for herself…even when the mask comes off?
