The Boy Who Smells Like Fish

Mica's unusual scent, caused by a mysterious condition, leads to social isolation and bullying at school. Despite setbacks, he finds solace in therapy and eventually forms a connection with Laura, changing the course of his life.

Mica, a seemingly normal boy, is actually hiding a peculiar secret. His house has been converted into a museum dedicated to the legendary Mexican singer Guillermo Garibai, and Mica spends most of his time giving tours to elderly fans. However, his life is marred by an unusual affliction: he smells like fish. Despite efforts from numerous doctors, his therapist, and even his own parents, no one can explain or alleviate the odor. As a result, Mica becomes an outcast, unable to form meaningful connections with others. His life appears bleak and uneventful, until Laura enters the picture.
