“It's hard not to wish that The Danish Girl were a better movie, a more daring and emotionally open exploration of Lili’s emergence.”

-New York Times-

That’s right, this moving picture had sold out tickets in all theaters during Sunday and Saturday’s afternoon in all of Bogotá. It’s absolutely touching and nerve racking. A movie about courage leading to an emotional transformation into a real-life figure.

An honor for a Colombian movie to finally be on the Oscars! You can’t miss it if you are fond of nature and specially if you happen to be a fan of the Amazon jungle, for this dense and beautiful film, depicts it from the inside looking out.
