Abstract
Hilda es una mujer que ha estado lidiando con trastornos emocionales, depresión y
alucinaciones durante gran parte de su vida. Para controlar estas experiencias, ha dependido de
fármacos anti depresivos y psicóticos recetados por su médico. los días que ella se encuentra
medicada vive una monotonía muy marcada, su día a día suele ser muy cotidiano y casi
invariable; sin embargo, un día muy especial se acerca: el cumpleaños de su hermana, quién
lamentablemente falleció hace algunos años. Hilda siempre ha sentido una profunda conexión
con su hermana y, a medida que se acerca la fecha, su deseo de verla nuevamente se intensifica.
A pesar de ser consciente de que dejar de tomar los medicamentos puede ser peligroso y podría
desencadenar una serie de síntomas, Hilda toma la valiente decisión de dejar de consumirlos
ese día. Durante el transcurso del día, Hilda comienza a experimentar emociones y visiones
intensas. A veces, siente una alegría abrumadora y recuerdos vívidos de momentos compartidos
con su hermana, pero mientras el día va culminando, la tristeza la consume y la realidad la
embarga. La historia de Hilda destaca el deseo humano de conectarse con aquellos que
amamos, incluso cuando se enfrenta a desafíos mentales y emocionales. Aunque la elección de
ella puede parecer arriesgada, demuestra el poder del amor y la fuerza interna para buscar
momentos de consuelo y conexión, incluso en circunstancias difíciles, y para resaltar la
emocionalidad y sentimiento de este corto, hemos utilizado la voz en off.
