Turbia

Directed by Oscar Ruiz Navia, Carlos Moreno, César Augusto Acevedo, William Vega, Jorge Navas, Santiago Lozano

Colombia | 114 minutes | 2021

It's 2023 and a huge environmental and social crisis shakes Cali, Colombia due to water shortages as a result of months of drought and contamination of the city's main water sources. Different inhabitants go about their daily chores, businesses, and activities in the midst of a harsh and savage environment. The city has been split up into two separate zones: a privileged, cordoned-off area, where the wealthiest and most powerful people live, and a so-called dry zone that lacks tap water, and shelters the rest of the population. The dry zone, inhabited by those who laid low by the crisis, is experiencing the highest levels of overwhelming violence, unhealthy conditions, and corruption. Meanwhile, the media has announced a coming rainstorm that has citizens in an uproar.
