458 chapter 48
The second skit is a continuation of the first.
This is the disabled child, Tristín
His role is played by Inés—one of the
disabled village workers. In fact, the
skit comes close to telling Inés’ own
story. Like Tristín in the skit, Inés is
an orphan disabled by polio who was
helped by PROJIMO to get braces,
and then stayed on as a rehabilitation
worker.
Marcelo, a village rehabilitation worker, finds
Tristín in a village hut. The boy is unhappy
because he cannot walk and has no friends.
Marcelo invites Tristín to come with him to
PROJIMO.
They arrive at PROJIMO, and Marcelo shows
Tristín the playground.
