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)

Bastian is very fortunate to be transitioning with a loving and supportive family. Not everyone has that kind of support. Bastian's story is not overly dramatic, yet it illustrates what it is like to be transgender and all the processes behind the transition. The protagonist comes of age at a time when Chile is just opening up to sexual minorities and not putting obstacles in their way to achieve their goals. A very nice documentary about an extraordinary stage in life, love and growing up. [Zlín Film Festival 2023]
