“One day all men fell asleep… And the fences of the earth, burst into flames” This is the story of RÁ (18), CULEBRO (16), SERE (14), NANO (13), WINNY (11). Five homeless kids from the streets of Medellín, Colombia. Five kings without a kingdom, without law, without family. Rootless. In their hands they have the old property titles of a piece of land inherited by Rá. There lies the possibility of finally having a place of their own, where they can be free. Somewhere they can be safe and call home. After receiving the final letter from the land restitution program of the government, Rá will decide to embark on a journey with his friends to claim that piece of land from where his grandma was once expelled by paramilitary groups. They leave Medellín, cross the mountain range in search of El Bajo Cauca, a region, where beauty and violence meet. Human contradiction will be present all the way: goodness and evil, solidarity and greed, love and hate. The violence of the country will manifest itself in this journey through the landscape. But everything is worth it in this long journey. It is the adventure of a lifetime trying to find that piece of land, where they could be kings and break free. In the midst of the harshness and the beauty of the landscape they will also meet all these characters who live in the outskirts of a savage society who will teach them about the meaning of life and freedom. Inside a brothel they will recognize motherly love. On the road they will meet Vayú, an old man who stepped away from society, but who will give them shelter and protect them from the hostile world. Nothing will stop them from reaching the dream of their promised land. #TheKingsOfTheWorld #movie
