Clara Como El Agua | Growing Pains Category | PBS Online Film Festival

Duration: 12:21

Watch and vote for "Clara como el Agua," a short fiction film about the tales and half-truths that surround the origins of Clara, a light-skinned black girl with kinky, blond hair and gray eyes, who is incessantly teased by her dark-skinned peers; until she ventures into the magical waters of the bioluminescent bay to change her skin color and possibly herself. To cast your vote in this category, visit each film's YouTube page (Clara Como El Agua, Life's Poison, Man in the Mirror, My Name is Seven, or This Gay and Age), and click the thumbs up "like" button at the bottom of the video player.
