SYNOPSIS The documentary explores the composition process of Raquel García-Tomás' new opera, National Music Prize 2020, inspired by the memoirs of Alexina B., a 19th-century intersex person. In this artistic journey, Raquel García-Tomás transforms the understanding of intersex reality into a source of empathy and inspiration, showing how each musical and narrative decision brings this moving story to life, culminating in its premiere at the Gran Teatre del Liceu.
