Minotauro
Joaquín Uribe / 2024 / Colombia / 75 min.
Synopsis: Corrupt prosecutor, emerald trafficker, possessed transvestite. Omar Bautista “has been” all of these people, but he is also a 60-year-old man who was sentenced to prison for homicide. After nearly a decade in prison, Omar is granted 72-hour leave privileges. A documentarian attempts to follow him during these leaves, which devolve into a kind of psychological hunt. With chameleonic behavior, Omar drags him into absurd situations that defy his understanding of freedom… and cinema.
After the screening, a conversation will take place with Joaquín Uribe, director of the film, and Lucas Perro, filmmaker and teacher.
