Martín y Upendo son dos niños aparentemente muy distintos. La primera vez que se encuentren descubrirán que las diferencias entre ellos son pocas y no impiden conocer el valor de la amistad.

Martín and Upendo are two children from different countries. The first time they meet, Martín thinks that he has never seen a boy the color of chocolate, and Upendo has never seen a boy the color of merengue. With a touch of humor and a lesson in empathy, they quickly discover that their differences won't get in the way of forming new friendships.
