Ashes

Abril doesn´t want to let go of her mother´s ashes, doesn´t understand

why she asked her to scatter her remains at the sea.

 

When I Wake

Irene is undergoing chemotherapy treatment. María, her daughter,

tries to accompany her during the process, but her mother refuses.

One morning, Irene asks María for help. Mother and daughter are

forced to overcome any attempt at denial of the disease.

 

The Doldrums or How To Cure Sadness

The doldrums are the disease of the soul when the heart saddens.

A story of three generations in the doldrums: Ita, Justa and Alicia

(grandmother, mother and daughter), who, in different periods,

suffered, tolerated and permitted abuse, and the consequent disease.

Alicia decides to break this circle and not pass it on to another generation.

 

Defective

An old puppet master gathers defective and abandoned dolls from the

garbage bins. With great passion and dedication, he turns these characters

into charming marionettes that now star in his theatrical performances on the

streets, and become again toys cherished and applauded by all the children.

 

Little Print

Érica is obsessed with drawing with the palms of her hands: paint, paper

and fingers are her whole world; but this could be diluted at any time by

the world of unsatisfied, fearful and angry adults.

 

Little Lamb

A story about violence, a brutal relationship interrupted when the rebellion

of a being who by definition should be docile confronts the abuse.

 

Inside Oneself

An indigenous boy named Juan faces what, to him, is a terrible monster.

 His fear grows constantly. Seeing this, his grandmother Mariana believes

she has a cure.

 

Lucy Vs. the Limits of Voice

Lucy, a seven year old girl, wants to know if a person´s voice can run

out and if that could be the reason why her grandpa stopped talking.

To find the answer, she decides to perform a risky experiment defying

her aunt Rose´s strict rules.

 

The Prickly Pear

Don Severo, a young archeologist obsessed with order, comes home

and can´t find the prickly pear he discovered on his nopal cactus that morning.

He accuses Celia, his maid, of having eaten it.
