CGiii Comment

Rafael began his transition ten months ago. His long-awaited journey with testosterone is not an easy road; no one told him about the emotional process this change would entail. He feels so uncomfortable as his body changes that he finds himself unable to do something as simple as going to the beach. Together with his friend Carolina, who has accompanied him since the beginning of his transition, he will try to reconcile with himself and with Rafaella -his former name- to finally be able to swim in the sea.


Rafael lleva meses transicionando, enfrentándose a retos emocionales y físicos, sintiéndose incómodo incluso para ir a la playa. Con su amiga Carolina, busca aceptarse y reconciliarse con su pasado, aspirando a disfrutar del mar nuevamente. Afioco Gnecco (Vina Del Mar, 1980) y Carolina Yuste (Badajoz, 1991) unen fuerzas por primera vez en la dirección conjunta de esta pieza documental a través de su amistad para dar voz en primera persona al malestar que sienten muchas personas trans y su forma de habitar el mundo y su cuerpo, contribuyendo una vez más al trabajo por la representación de las realidades LGTBIQ+ como ya hicieron previamente en otros proyectos, por ejemplo Indetectables (2017) o Carmen y Lola (2019).
