Bridges Over the Sea (with Teresa's Choice)


September 11, 2024

Director Patricia Ayala in attendance!
Alicia and Michael, her teenage son, live in a palafitic neighbourhood in Tumaco, an area in the Colombian Pacific that concentrates all the beauty and also the terror of this country. She knows that the armed group, which controls her neighbourhood, can recruit her son at any time. It is why she guards him, watches over him and protects him. But one day, Michael does not return from school and she begins a frantic search that will lead her to face her worst fears, finding the way out in the love and solidarity of her people.

Preceded by the short film TERESA'S CHOICE with director Marlene Castaños in attendance.
