Maria entered the small, tidy room. Esther, seventy-three, with silver hair and eyes that sometimes recognized Maria and sometimes looked through her as if she were a ghost, lay curled on her side. A stroke had stolen the right side of her body and most of her words.

"See?" Maria said, brushing Esther’s hair. "You’re a new woman."
"Okay," Maria said softly. "I’ll warm the water first."
"Remember that tango?" Maria asked as she rinsed Esther’s back. "You and that dark-haired man. His hand on your waist."
"Esther? It’s Maria. Time for your shower."

Sin haber perdido interés con el paso del tiempo, Gattaca bordea hoy la frontera entre ficción y actualidad, en unos momentos difíciles, en que la ciencia-ficción deja de ser ficción, sin llegar a ser ciencia.
