IVÀN & HADOUM
Summer in southern Spain. Iván works in a large greenhouse complex and is on the verge of the long-awaited promotion to manager, which he hopes will give him and his family a better life. But when the beautiful Hadoum joins the company as a new seasonal worker, old feelings awaken in Iván. He knew Hadoum back in school, before her transition.
After spending their first night together on the beach, their relationship grows increasingly intense. But Hadoum, who has always had to stand up to prejudice because of her Moroccan heritage, is also actively fighting for workers’ rights at the company. Iván must decide whom he wants to stand by and who he truly wants to be.
