The wind picks up and tempers fray in the fishing village of Bocas de Ceniza on the northern tip of Columbia. Antonia – in her virginal white dress – undergoes an undefined religious ritual, seemingly carefree. She isn’t easily convinced and chooses her own path. Jorge Cadena’s graduation film is also a visionary tale of contemporary Colombia. Winner Tiger Award for Short Films 2017.
