Queer Voices 8 | NIÑXS

NINXS by Kani Lapuerta

Mexico / Germany / 2025 / 88'

Parental Guidance (12+)

In the magical town of Tepoztlán, Mexico, fifteen-year-old Karla intimately, and unabashedly, guides audiences in her journey for self-discovery, as she navigates the joys and uncertainties of adolescence, alongside society's gender prejudices.

While Karla navigates her transition, Kani shapes eight years of footage into a joyful film. Through Karla's exploration of her transgender identity, the film presents an empowering, yet sweet coming-of-age story about self-expression, resilience, and the complexities of growing up, that is as specific as it is universal.
