Mejunje (2024)
After a long track record in dramatic theater, Melisa Granados seeks to change the course of her career and venture into comedy. The actress, who is 37 years old and has Down syndrome, creates a character for her new facet: a clown called Mejunje, who combines acidity with a diva-like attitude in equal parts. Throughout the 82 minutes of the documentary, we see her in her intimacy, accompanied by her mother and her theater colleagues, while she prepares her first one-woman show. The stage, according to Melisa, is the only place where she is seen with different eyes and is no longer invisible.
