Sapos (Toads)

During 2015 and 2016, the scientist Fernando Ventura began to manipulate the DNA of some people to investigate their traumas and the possibility of changing their genetic sequences. The genetic manipulation led to a high-profile police case and the tragic end of the scientist. Some of the people whose DNA was manipulated are the son of a drug dealer, a trans boy, an accident survivor and an international stripper. They reconstruct their stories, with their testimonies and personal archives, along with those of the experiment they were part of.
