Nocaut (2022)

For Yilmar Leandro Gónzalez, a afro-colombian fighter and gardener of his neighborhood's cemetery, life happens in between contrast: with the same hands he punches his contenders in the ring, he nourishes the life that grows amidst the graves. In his craft he has won the national champion and other prizes. He is considered a promise to his region and the country. Every day, after practice, he leaves his gloves and becomes the gardener for the cemetery of his neighborhood: Siloé, in Cali, where his alcoholic mother and siblings live. Yilmar does not fear death, he fears defeat and oblivion. This is not a movie about sports, neither is it about death by violent causes. It's the story of a man that decides to fight for his future and the future of his community, a portrait of the job of the sportsmen in our country, a job that is out of breath and still goes on, against all odds, planting flowers on the destruction of a society without government.
