Descripción / Resumen (Español / Castellano): Con la entrada en vigor de la Ley Orgánica 3/2007 (conocida como la Ley de Igualdad), la imposición de cuotas de representación paritaria en las candidaturas españolas supuso una alteración de la composición de género en la administración local (por ser el nivel más amplio y elemental de la organización política española), en donde los individuos han tenido que reconfigurar y redefinir tanto sus prácticas como su imaginario, para adaptarse a un escenario forzosamente heterogéneo.

Marcos tries to stick to numbers, consignments, processing. Then one day he’s given a gift: a live specimen of the finest quality. Though he’s aware that any form of personal contact is forbidden on pain of death, little by little he starts to treat her like a human being. And soon, he becomes tortured by what has been lost—and what might still be saved.
