Mentirosa

Corazones al límite is a Mexican telenovela about a teenage girl named Diana who was emotionally neglected from her parents, and felt unwanted. After being expelled from her boarding school in Switzerland, Diana goes back to live with her parents.

The film describes in a simple way the division between girls and boys through education by assigning them different behaviors based on their sex difference.

People of different generations and sociocultural contexts share their stories to reveal the secrets that keep their bodies, rebuilding themselves through a tour of themselves: Kany, a trans person; Julia, who has known she was a lesbian since she was a child; Erika, a woman who has dealt with being overweight; Natalia, who has survived cancer; and Rosaly, a straight woman who is recognizing the reasons for her failed relationships.

Midwives from around the world travel to Mexico and Brazil summoned by Naolí, a Mexican midwife, in order to learn further and make of their profession an art; just as mothers and fathers in the process of giving birth, they simultaneously open up their bodies and souls to share with us the feminine nature. The First Smile is an emotive work which recovers ancestral knowledge, that shouldn’t have been forgotten.
