STILLZ | 2025 | Colombia, United States | 84 min | Spanish with English subtitles

In an impoverished neighborhood of 1980s Medellín, a group of disaffected teens steals a TV reporter's camera to document their lives. Piercing the derelict landscape's oppressive atmosphere with disarming reflections on dreams and death, their understanding of reality and hope begins to erode as reports of mysterious lights falling from the sky coincide with temporal and spatial distortions. The feature debut from Bad Bunny collaborator STILLZ and featuring the first original score by Arca, BARRIO TRISTE is a generational portrait of Colombia's forgotten youth, both personal and specific in its perspective, yet unclassifiable in its formal audacity. Accentuated by Arca's intense, shape-shifting sonic palette, STILLZ boldly navigates the liminal spaces between despair and transcendence in "one of the year's great debuts" (The Film Stage).
