A Poet
Middle-aged and erratic, Oscar is a failed writer who has given up on life. Unemployed and living with family, he wanders the streets of Medellín in a drunken stupor, lamenting the state of literature in his home country, where he has succumbed to the cliché of the tortured artist. However, the opportunity to mentor a young student offers a chance at redemption, if he doesn’t screw it up first.
In a performance marked by darkly comic pathos, first-time actor Ubeimar Rios stars in Simón Mesa Soto's Un Certain Regard Jury-Prize winner, a raw and riotous face about how good deets are often met with the universe's idea of cruel and unusually poetic punishment. Colombia's entry for Best International Feature to the 98th Academy Awards.ComedyPT2H3M2026-03-20Ubeimar Rios
