The Celebration of the Tragic Silence of the Youngest One ()

Directed by Ralva Álvarez

“On her birthday, Minerva receives a gift from her father that reflects a dark family destiny.”

Drama · 3m

In the heart of a Dominican family’s home, the youngest daughter’s thirteenth birthday is being celebrated. Balloons, cake, and music cannot hide the tension that lingers in the air. Amid the party, between music and applause, Minerva receives a special gift from her father. What seems like an innocent gesture turns into a silent revelation of the fear that has long resided in her heart. Through glances, restrained gestures, and meaningful details, the short film portrays domestic violence from a child’s perspective, where joy and horror coexist in the same space.
