Nineteen-year-old Anastasia Ferriera grew up close to her mother, Natalie Padilla, and her grandmother Brenda. Birthdays were always spent together, and texts flew back and forth throughout the day. In March 2023, that contact stopped. Anastasia was last seen in Albuquerque's International District, and her family has been searching ever since.

In this first episode of a two-part series, we trace Anastasia's life in Albuquerque's International District and the days leading up to her disappearance. Her family has never stopped searching. They hope someone out there knows something.
