Caring for HIStory

On a Day of the Dead night, Jesús, a 10-year-old Mexican kid, longs to meet his paternal grandfather, Rubén, whom he never met. Convinced that Rubén will visit him that night, Jesus waits anxiously by the altar, but he falls asleep. To his surprise, he is awakened by the figure of his grandfather, who takes him on an emotional night journey where they get to know each other. Jesus finally met his paternal grandfather and Rubén was able to send a last message to his son Mateo, asking for forgiveness. By communicating the message the next morning, Jesus finally convinces his parents of the reality of his encounter with Rubén, confirming the existence of visits from the afterlife on the Day of the Dead, leading them to believe in the colorful Mexican tradition of Day of the Dead and to find reconciliation and healing in the family.

En La Quietud De La Noche

In the stillness of an ordinary morning, a grieving couple confronts the unbearable absence left by the loss of their young daughter. As tea steeps and coffee cools across a quiet kitchen table, Mia and Jack struggle to reconcile memory, guilt, and the fear of moving forward without forgetting. Through restrained conversation and shared silence, long-buried emotions surface, revealing how differently each carries grief. Fractured is an intimate, character-driven drama about love after loss, the weight of memory, and the fragile hope that healing may begin with simply choosing to face tomorrow together.
