¡Cine Magnífico! Albuquerque’s Latino Film Festival 2018: Matar a Jesus / Killing Jesus

September 5, 2018

7 pm

Paula, a young Colombian student, witnesses the cold-blooded murder of her father. After facing the inefficiency of the police, she accidentally crosses paths with the hitman who did the job. Driven by her anger, frustration and pain, the choice of revenge seems to be the only possible reaction… But what if both of them are the victims of a violent and corrupt system? Inspired by true events

Un par de meses después del asesinato de su padre, Paula, una joven de 22 años se cruzará con Jesús, el sicario que disparó a su padre. A partir de este momento se verá forzada a definir los límites de su propia humanidad. El encuentro entre víctima y agresor revelará cuánto cuesta matar a un hombre, especialmente cuando el otro es el reflejo de uno mismo: una víctima más.
