Huesera: The Bone Woman

Huesera: The Bone Woman
After much trying Veleria and her husband Raul are pregnant at last. She is overjoyed but then sees a woman fall off a building and break her legs...and disappear. Now she is starting to have flashes of her own bones breaking. What does it all mean?

Pregnancy without a good support network takes the joys of parenthood and quickly becomes a curse. Through Valeria we see the many ways in which people who don't take to motherhood can be pariahed culturally and I felt it was explored in a very non-judgemental way. Particularly the subplot of queer people trying to fit in to heteronormative spaces.
