Niñxs
In the town of Tepoztlán, Karla, a 15-year-old, guides us through an intimate journey of self-discovery as she navigates adolescence and her gender transition. Filmed over several years, the camera becomes a companion to her growth, shaping a story built on trust and collaboration. Balancing tenderness, humor, and vulnerability, the film captures the experience of growing up trans in a context that shifts between family support and social prejudice. Directed by Kani Lapuerta, the film was part of the official selection at the Frameline San Francisco International LGBTQ+ Film Festival, , and received a Special Mention at NewFest.DocumentaryPT1H26MNR2026-05-21Karla Bañuelos
