Our Lady of the Assassins

Medellín, thirty years after he left it, is a city run by drug cartels, and the writer Fernando (Germán Jaramillo) comes home to it expecting a quiet end. Then he takes a young street kid named Alexis (Anderson Ballesteros), who carries a gun and kills without hesitation, as his lover. Barbet Schroeder leaves the older man's peace and the boy's life in the same room, and the violence outside keeps pressing in on them.
