June the 3Oth could be any date, a birthday, a wedding, the day you started your first job... or the most important day of your life. We, the Spanish baby-boom generation, are afraid of the fact of having children. Meanwhile, in the third world, babygirls are being rejected. To be thirty years old, is to ask yourself about having or adopting children. These are the questions that this small poetic work (half documental) arise to make you think and feel.
