The screening on 22 May will be followed by a live Zoom Q&A with director Jurgen Ureña, with the support of an interpreter.
Verónica is a kindly transgender sex worker in the Costa Rican capital San José, where she yearns for more from life than her existing relationships. When she witnesses a young homeless man being knocked over by a car, she takes him home to care for him. Confronted with being a motherly figure, Verónica reconciles her desire to care for others with her own painful experiences of letting go.
The film was presented at the 5th Días de Cine film festival in 2017 and won Best National Feature Film at the Costa Rica International Film Festival.
