Soy niño

Bastian, a young trans boy, has to face a very difficult time in life: adolescence. It becomes even harder when he must put his best efforts into asserting his individuality. From age 12 to 18, Bastian is filmed by his dear cousin Lorena who catches every glimpse of intimacy and difficulties. We witness how social and economic obstacles can put his transition at risk. Bastian’s journey introduces us to a newly open-minded Chile, more tolerant thanks to Chile’s new generation. (Gijón International Film Festival)
