In the magical town of Tepoztlán, Mexico, fifteen-year-old Karla intimately, and unabashedly, guides audiences in her journey for self-discovery, as she navigates the joys and uncertainties of adolescence, alongside society's gender prejudices. Through Karla's exploration of her transgender identity, the film presents an empowering, yet sweet coming-of-age story about self-expression, resilience, and the complexities of growing up.

The Fugue

The Fugue accompanies the internal journey of eight men, who throughout a theater workshop go through the different prisons they inhabit.

Practicing the art of looking at ourselves, in Boal's words, this group of men reflects on their masculinity as a representation to hide their true strength: their vulnerability.
