Angela is a university student who, after witnessing a violent event at the University of Puerto Rico, doesn’t know where she is safe. Seeking refuge from the chaos in the streets of Rio Piedras, Angela returns to her apartment where, with her brother by her side, she questions her reality. Angela looks to her brother for comfort and help, but instead finds herself questioning everything she thought she knew.

Carpeteo explores a painful period in the history of Puerto Rico, which divided and destroyed people and families, simply because of their political beliefs.
