This project started out with the intention of making a film about sirens set in contemporary Central America, seeing these mermaids as a group of women (or people who identify as women), creatures who transition between the anthropomorphic and the animal, between one gender and another, people who transition as a way of surviving their circumstances. All this is mediated by elements of fantasy typical of legend, revolving around the figure of the siren or mermaid.
