Things We Dare Not Do (Cosas que no hacemos)
A secret, many kids, a party, a dead body, silence, voices, laughs, and games. A boy asks his parents for permission to dress as a woman.
Overview
In the small Mexican coastal village of El Roblito, 16-year-old Ñoño lives what seems to be an idyllic existence with his loving family. But he holds a secret. Defying gender norms, Ñoño works up the courage to tell his family he wants to live his life as a woman, a fraught decision in a country shrouded in machismo and transphobia.
