For over three centuries in Palma and Mallorca, there existed a social group known as the xuetes, descendants of Jewish converts, who were stigmatized and excluded from social life, forced into endogamy, and limited to certain professions, such as jeweler, simply for having one of these fifteen surnames: Aguiló, Bonnín, Cortès, Fortesa, Fuster, Martí, Miró, Picó, Pinya, Pomar, Segura, Tarongí, Valentí, Valleriola, and Valls.

They’re not like us is a reflection on their social dynamics and embodied identities up until the arrival of tourism on the island, as well as on the transmission of this oral memory and its taboos through generations, continuing to the present day.
