A Poet (Un Poeta)January 4th
Simón Mesa Soto | Colombia, Germany and Sweden
2025 | 120m | Spanish
An aging, obscure writer mentors a talented teen, hoping to give her what he never had. But their bond — rooted in good intentions — spirals into a web of poor decisions and the weight of unmet ambitions.
Balancing wry, uncomfortable comedy with a perceptive take on Colombia’s current social milieu to tell a tale of hope lost and found, Simón Mesa Soto’s second feature won the Un Certain Regard Special Jury Prize this year at Cannes Film Festival.
