CGiii Comment

Jordi is a swimming instructor in a Barcelona municipal sports complex. He’s a good professional, gentle, intuitive, and affectionate. A child he is teaching to swim is terrified of the water and Jordi attempts to calm his fear by kissing him on the cheek. But not everyone sees the kiss in the same way. He is accused of abuse, and in a few hours, undergoes a traumatic, emotional transformation that leads him from innocence to cruel suspicion: a life under relentless scrutiny.


El día que el grupo infantil de natación de la piscina municipal, empiezan a nadar sin burbuja, se acusa a uno de los monitores, Jordi, de dar un beso a un niño. Los padres reaccionan con inquietud. ¿Se trata de un gesto de ternura para calmar a un crio asustado o se oculta alguna otra cosa? Aflorarán interrogantes sobre los miedos contemporáneos, las relaciones humanas, los prejuicios y la confianza.
