What Is Espera About?

The premise of Espera without spoilers.

The film explores the multifaceted theme of waiting, portraying it in various forms. These include waiting in lines, mystical anticipation, the performer’s wait before appearing on stage, the restless waiting for sleep, and the period of hormonal shifts during gender transition. It suggests that the experience of waiting becomes intertwined with the passage of life itself, particularly in a world where the ability to wait seems to be fading.
