ESTER
OFFICIAL SELECTION! Miami Gay Lesbian Film Festival
(Spain, NR, 15 min, 2005) Beta
 A
woman meets another called Ester and the reflections of this woman
create a sharp, humoristic regression of untimely romance. Time, frozen
since the moment the two characters meet, passes in a room where we
only see a large white bed. This space "so familiar" provides the
perfect excuse for self analysis, which is encapsulated in the visual
tale which transcends the space in which it takes place. The young
girl, with her sensual gaze, her eroticism and her wildness was born
free and has found herself slowly building, like any woman, the
idealized dream imposed on her by others. Ester is a love story which
relates a simple journey through a complex world with the destination
being a return to our own skin and our own desires and freedom.

 There are over ten
million children with gay or lesbian parents in the

lives in Manhattan and has two dads. Kyle is 15,
lives near Austin, Texas, and has two moms. Their life experience has
been very different because of the surroundings, as they and their

everyday life. The documentary also shows Family Week in Provincetown,
the oldest annual meeting of families with lesbian, gay, bisexual or

they have to face? Do they feel some kind of extra pressure? Are they
