Selected Film
This is an intimate and powerful documentary about Michael and Lorena, a couple whose bond was forged in the most vulnerable moments of their lives: she, after losing a leg in an accident; he, as he was finishing his chemotherapy. Far from being victims of their circumstances, they find a common goal in sports: to become high-performance athletes. But they face an immense obstacle: their prostheses are not suitable for running. Instead of giving up, they adapt, competing with poles and testing not only their physical endurance but the strength of their spirit in their first official race. "Encounters" is more than a story of overcoming adversity in sports. It is a love letter to resilience, patience, and the power of a shared dream. As they fight for their goal, they also dream of becoming parents, traveling, and showing the world the beauty of Colombia. Through their journey, we discover how two broken souls united to multiply their strength, finding in their union the power they needed to heal and conquer their greatest aspirations.
