About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

Federico y su hermano Simón viven plenamente su adolescencia, hasta el día en que Simón muere al caer de un balcón en una fiesta. Mientras su entorno familiar se desmorona ante sus ojos, Federico intenta vivir con normalidad sus últimas semanas de colegio.

Incapaz de hacer el duelo, se va acercando a Laura, la exnovia de su hermano, en quien parece encontrar alivio y, sobre todo, amor. Juntos, no solo vivirán una historia lejos de todo lo que imaginaban, sino que podrán, finalmente, empezar su duelo.


Federico and his brother Simón live their adolescence to the fullest until the day Simón dies when he falls from a balcony at a party. While his family environment crumbles before his eyes, Federico tries to live normally during his last weeks of school.

Unable to mourn, he grows closer to Laura, his brother's ex-girlfriend, in whom he seems to find relief and, above all, love. Together, they will not only live a story far from everything they imagined, but they will finally be able to begin their mourning.


Organized by

For many years the film industry in Colombia has often lacked the resources to produce national cinema. Among several setbacks, was the absence of a national audience who demanded Hollywood films. In recent years, Colombia has expanded its resources to support filmmakers throughout the country, since then the number of productions has increased dramatically. Juan Carvajal founded the Colombian Film Festival of New York in 2012. He noticed the small presence of Colombian cinema while visiting New York City. Determined to unify the existing diaspora of the country & new york community he set a goal to create a festival dedicated to the exhibition of Colombia’s roots and talent. Let’s discover and rediscover our story through film!
