Why Did You Come Back Every Summer

2025

Based on the novel of the same name written by Belén López Peiró, the short film follows Lucía (the author's alter ego), a 22-year-old student who reveals the abuse she suffered as a child. A trip to the town where she grew up marks the beginning of a journey of resilience, but the silence and hypocrisy she encounters within her family prove to be a major obstacle.
