In a place where everyone starts over without a past, Simón takes responsibility for David, a child he met during the crossing to this new life. Moved by an inexplicable conviction, he looks for the child’s mother and recognizes Inés as the right woman. She accepts, and between the three of them an unusual affective bond is formed, where the idea of family is reinvented with every gesture. But when society imposes norms and difference is perceived as a threat, David refuses to be shaped and affirms himself as the opposite: imagination and freedom, transforming parenthood into an uncertain crossing, a search without answers. Based on J. M. Coetzee’s Jesus Trilogy, “ The Childhood of Jesus” , “The Schooldays of Jesus” and “The Death of Jesus”. Presented at the Cannes Film Festival.
