Overview

Manolita Chen became in the mid-eighties the first Spanish transsexual mother who managed to adopt. Through the documentary she tells us about that process, as well as her experiences as a transgressive woman at a time when Spain was not yet socially or legally advanced. We discover a life full of bitterness but without rancor in between, where she nostalgically recalls her facet as a businesswoman and vedette, gradually managing to integrate into her hometown, Arcos de la Frontera, where she currently enjoys the affection and approval of her relatives and neighbors.
