SYNOPSIS Bound by a deep friendship, Rafael and Carolina set out on an emotional and geographic journey in search of reconciliation and acceptance. Along the way, we follow Rafael through the early years of his gender transition, an intimate process shaped by challenges, discoveries, and small victories that bring him closer to the peace he longs for. A luminous story where friendship becomes refuge and the personal turns universal, revealing both the beauty and the hardship of inhabiting a transforming body in a world still learning how to see.
