This is a story about love, resilience, faith and hope. Itzia is a strong and determined woman who does not give up in the face of adversity. The film is a metaphor for the search of peace and reconciliation in Colombia.
The production has an exquisite photography where you can see lush landscapes of Colombian mountain ranges. Its music is evocatively captivating, it is a metaphor of love, passion and spiritual connection and the film, with its careful narrative, features the outstanding performance of Flora Martínez , Gerardo Romano, Patricia Ércole and Julián Díaz.
Martínez and her production team used elements of magical realism to create a dreamlike and mysterious atmosphere, which is nuanced by the fruity and bittersweet notes of "chucureño" chocolate.
"Itzia, Tango & Cacao" is a beautiful and moving film that is worth watching with the family and that will surely leave a good taste in audience. It is a story about love, resilience and hope; and it is an excellent representation of Colombia's cocoa culture, a testimony to the role of women in building peace in our country.
