Movie: La importancia de llamarse Satya Bicknell Rothon

  • HomePage

  • Overview

    Satya was born in the countryside, in the middle of the world. Helen and Nicola, her mothers, wanted her to be born there, in the peace of his home. They wanted Satya to be Ecuadorian. Two weeks after her birth, Helen and Nicola went to the Ecuadorian Civil Registry office to register her daughter under both mothers' last names. Their request was denied. This is the story of a family established in a country with a Constitution that recognizes their rights but with a State that does not guarantee those rights and a society where many still deny them completely.
