    ANHELL69

    Theo Montoya

    A funeral car cruises the streets of Medellín while a young director tells the story of his past in that violent and conservative city. He remembers the pre-production of his first film, a B-movie with ghosts. The young queer scene of Medellín is the film’s cast, but the main protagonist dies of a heroin overdose at the age of 21, just like many friends of the director. This documentary explores the dreams, doubts and fears of an annihilated generation, and the struggle to carry on making cinema.

Seeing this demolition as a perfect image for portraying the death of a certain Lisbon in the wake of the financial crisis and the ensuing real estate and touristic boom, the director proposes to film an urban diary portraying the daily life of the construction site and those who work there.
