Nocaut


Yilmar González is a young Afro-Colombian boxer and gardener at the Siloé cemetery, one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Latin America. His life unfolds amidst contrasts: on one hand, he trains to win the National Boxing Championship, which represents his dreams and the hopes of a community fighting against violence and government neglect; on the other, the cemetery and the neighborhood symbolize a life of simplicity and where we discover Yilmar's environment: his mother, who is an alcoholic; his friends, who are delinquents; and his girlfriend, Eliana, who is also a boxer and the mother of his two children.
The big fight is approaching, and Yilmar is very close to changing his destiny. He is not afraid of pain or death, but he fears defeat and being forgotten.
This is the story of a man who decides to fight for his future and the future of his community, regardless of his own happiness.
