    • Synopsis
    • Anina Yatay Salas: both her name and two last names
      are palindromes. Anina lives in Montevideo and goes
      to primary school, where her classmates make fun of
      her because of her name and last names. Anina has a
      best friend in school, but there is also a girl with whom
      she doesn’t get along at all: Yisel. One day she fights
      with Yisel, and so her problems begin: the school
      principal gives them both an intriguing punishment, a
      suspended detention. Anina spends her days in that
      suspension, a period of time with particular tension and
      questions, and her voice over guides us as she
      comments on life with her nice parents, meals, the
      eyes of gossipy neighbors, homework, and childhood
      feelings, joys, and fears.
