Description / Descripción

Camila (17) está demasiado acostumbrada a triunfar. Bella e inteligente como es, se las arregla para alcanzar cualquier meta que se proponga. Ella ama nadar y no conoce el fracaso. Sin embargo sería el agua, el medio que tantas satisfacciones le había dado, el que ahora la enfrenta a la mayor adversidad de su vida. Un accidente la obligará a reinventarse. Con coraje, humor y amor. (Cine Chile)
What would you do with a second chance? At seventeen, Camila got too used to win. Smart and beautiful, she has managed to achieve every goal. She loves swimming and doesn’t know failure. However, the water that has given her success in the recent past, now leads her to the biggest setback of her life: a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) that will force her to reinvent herself with courage, humor, and love. Inspired by a true story of bravery and resilience, Camila’s Awakening offers an enlightening way to discuss how we view disability and its portray in the media as well as a refreshing look at one of the world’s main causes of acquired disability that is surprisingly more frequent among young people than imagined.
