Cinema. We saw "A Poet": an outdated artist who shakes us up

A teaching position and a meeting with a student, whom he takes under his wing, will help him progress – a little. Played by Ubeimar Ríos, a formidable non-professional actor, Óscar Restrepo is constantly pushed to his limits by the filmmaker, to the point of humiliation. Like everyone he meets, he is not very likeable.

An uncompromising poet with a thwarted vocation, a teacher in spite of himself, Óscar Restrepo is played by Ubeimar Ríos, a formidable non-professional actor.
