Special Presentation:
GENTE DE BIEN
US Premiere!
Stuck with his estranged father, temperamental tyke Eric and his scruffy dog Lupe live a modest life in Bogotá, until a wealthy family takes pity and invites them to stay at their country home for Christmas. Blissfully unaware of the implications, Eric quickly takes to his new life in the lap of luxury, riding horses, splashing in the pool and making friends with the other kids. But it soon becomes clear that he doesn't belong and never will. Ten-year-old Bryan Santamarià gives an engrossing, bittersweet performance in filmmaker Franco Lolli's remarkable and sensitive debut. Official Selection, 2014 Cannes Film Festival.
