The Leap (Spanish: El paso) is an upcoming Spanish-language short documentary film written and directed by Roberto Tarazona.

[1] The film follows Two children who set out to decipher the mystery of events that the adults only talk about in secret: in the darkness of the moonless nights, cattle are disappearing along with the farmers who dare to confront the “monster” that is taking them.

[4] In rural Cuba, young Fabián and Christian spend their days carefree, unaware of the adults' fears of a lurking menace.

Their playful quest soon turns grim as they confront a haunting ritual that blurs the boundaries between innocence and maturity, life and death.

The Leap will have its World premiere on 15 February 2025, as part of the 75th Berlin International Film Festival, in Generation Kplus.
