The kings of the world

The kings of the world

Sinopsis

The kings of the world is a film about disobedience, friendship and the dignity that exists in resistance. Rá, Culebro, Sere, Winny and Nano, five children from the streets of Medellín, five kings without a kingdom, without law and without family, embark on a journey in search of the promised land. A subversive tale told through a wild and endearing clan, moving between reality and delirium. A trip to nowhere, where everything happens.


Laura Mora
