Director Statement

Statement: Norte de Santander, is a department that has been beaten like many, by violence in my country and where artists have very little support to develop their projects. For that reason, it was that for 5 years I wrote this script and began studying the law of cinema that supports independent filmmakers like me. This short film was made with 100% Colombian staff and who works for the cultural development of this region of the country to put our films on a national and international level.
