Life in the fast lane in Medellín comes screeching to a halt in “Devil’s Breath,” a drug-saturated Sanfic Wip from writer-director Jorge Monteallegre. Co-produced by Tres 33 Films and Hawaii Film Productions, the film follows the star-crossed story of Ana and Matias, two young and beautiful club-goers who meet and fall madly in love. When Ana is drugged by her dealer with scopolamine and overdoses, Matias must balance a journey back to her through either revenge or shamanic ritual.
Starring Angela Cano (“Frontera Verde”) and Fredy Morales Restrepo (“Pink Punk: The Mirror”), “Devil’s Breath” bowed at Sanfic in the Works in Progress section, and is another in the current surge of Latin American projects putting the region on the map. Sanfic Wip sidebar saw a 30% increase in applicants this year, and will package four of their WIPs as a lineup for Sanfic Goes to Cannes, a Cannes Film Market project showcase.
