Title Pequeñeces
Credits Produced by Chuck Greif
Summary "Pequeñeces" by Luis Coloma is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around life within the context of a school setting, focusing on the experiences and emotions of children as they navigate their relationships and growth, particularly through the lens of academical success and family backgrounds, as seen through the eyes of its main character, a young boy named Paquito. The opening of "Pequeñeces" introduces readers to the emotional atmosphere of a school celebration marking the end of the academic year. Parents and children gather in a church-like space to participate in the ritual of prize-giving, evoking a mixture of joy and melancholy, especially as Paquito, despite achieving multiple awards, feels a deep sense of loneliness due to his mother's absence. The scene showcases the tension between triumph and absence, highlighting the child's yearning for parental recognition and love amid the festivities, which is contrasted with the vibrant setting and the camaraderie of his peers.
