Students from a center in Portugalete attended the Ballonti cinemas to watch the film "Prodigiosas", in an activity organized by the Department of Drug Dependencies of the Portugalete City Council.

The film tells the story of twin sisters pursuing their father's dream of becoming pianists. However, one of them develops an illness affecting her hands, jeopardizing her future. Together, they seek a new way to play the piano that allows them to move forward.
The plot delves into profound themes such as personal overcoming and the healthy management of pressure and difficulties. The Zineskola educational and preventive project aims to address risk factors and enhance protective factors to promote integral well-being, mental and emotional health, and the adoption of healthy lifestyle habits among adolescents.
By using cinema as a didactic tool and a starting point for reflection, and through analyzing the characters' behaviors, the initiative seeks to provide tools for preventing risky behaviors and fostering mental and emotional health, as well as healthy lifestyle habits.
