But he also had a dream... to play for the world.
(beat)
And one day he left with his guitar... and never returned.
The man walks down a road, guitar slung on his back. In another vignette his daughter stands in the doorway, watching her papá leave. Two feet step up next to her. It is her mamá, hardened.
She shuts the door.

MIGUEL (V.O.)
A veces pienso que estoy maldito... por algo que ocurrió antes de que yo naciera.
Una historia comienza a desarrollarse en el papel picado.
MIGUEL (V.O.)
Verás, hace mucho tiempo había una familia.
Las imágenes del papel picado cobran vida para ilustrar a un padre, una madre y una niña. La familia es feliz.
MIGUEL (V.O.)
El papá era músico.
El papá toca la guitarra mientras la madre baila con su hija.
MIGUEL (V.O.)
Él y su familia cantaban, bailaban y contaban sus bendiciones...
(compás)
Pero también tenía un sueño... tocar para el mundo.
(compás)
Y un día se fue con su guitarra... y nunca regresó.
El hombre camina por una carretera con la guitarra colgada a la espalda. En otra viñeta, su hija está de pie en la puerta, mirando cómo se marcha su papá. Dos pies se acercan a ella. Es su madre, endurecida.
Cierra la puerta.
Literal Translation (Word-for-Word): The translator often uses a literal translation approach, especially when dealing with straightforward sentences and descriptions. For example, "EXT. MARIGOLD PATH - DUSK" is translated as "EXT. CAMINO DE CALÉNDULAS - ATARDECER," maintaining a close correspondence of words.
Cultural Equivalents: Cultural equivalents are employed, such as translating "Pixar" and "Pixar animation studios" as "Pixar" and "Pixar animation studios" respectively, since these are brand names that are typically not translated.
Transposition: Transposition is evident in the rearrangement of the word order to ensure a natural flow in Spanish. For instance, "The smoke lifts up toward lines of papel picado" is translated as "El humo se eleva hacia líneas de papel picado," where the word order is adjusted.
Expansion: The translator expands certain phrases to convey the meaning more clearly in Spanish. For example, "A path of marigold petals leads up to an altar lovingly arranged in a humble cemetery" is expanded as "Un camino de pétalos de caléndula conduce hasta un altar amorosamente dispuesto en un humilde cementerio."
Modulation: Modulation is employed in the translation of expressions to convey a similar sentiment in Spanish. For instance, "Sometimes I think I'm cursed" is translated as "A veces pienso que estoy maldito," where the word "cursed" is modulated to "maldito" to maintain the intended meaning.
Naturalization: The translator adapts expressions to make them sound natural in Spanish. For example, "The images on the papel picado come to life to illustrate a father, a mother, and a little girl" is translated as "Las imágenes del papel picado cobran vida para ilustrar a un padre, una madre y una niña."
