Álvaro G. Company and Meka Ribera humorously present us with a moral dilemma in which parents confront their love for their daughter and the novel options of bioethics. It is one of the most transgressive works that have come to the festival La Mirada Tabú, not only because of its subject matter, but also because it gives voice to thoughts that many parents have had at some point and would never confess.
Synopsis: When they are born they are beautiful, almost perfect. But they grow up so fast… I wish there was a way to enjoy that unrepeatable age forever. Petit Toujour combines the latest advances in gene therapy and selective hormone blockade to extend your time with the most beautiful thing you have in the world, your baby. [Source: Line up].

In April, the Instituto Cervantes Vimeo channel will be filled with a selection of short films that focus on the concept of taboo from different perspectives, but always with a thoughtful and considered, rather than critical, look to place viewers in the realm of reflection.
Proceeding from the international film festival La Mirada Tabú, the eight short films in this online film series cover different styles and looks and address different hot topics in 21st-century society using different registers and genres: we will find dramas, comedies, parodies, animations… to learn to face our world from a critical conscience.
