    Bogotá D.C. Area, Colombia
    CUENTOS DE HUMO is a 30-minute short film set in Bogota, currently in production. The screenplay was written based on extensive documentary work, primarily consisting of testimonies from people who have or have had experience of living on the streets. The film is produced by LES FILMS VELVET, with the partnership of Arte and the CNC (Pre-production support). The screenplay, co-written with Nataly Camacho, also won first prize in the Screenwriting Competition at the Lille European Film Festival in 2019. In the form of fantasy tales told on Bogota buses, Lasso, a young homeless person, a drug user (bazuco), recounts his own life story and, amidst his fear of a never-ending cycle, evokes the memory of a son he has not seen grow up.
