Trópico
Presented at the Cortópolis Latin American Short Film Festival
The quiet routine of a solitary country club gardener is disrupted when an unexpected party takes a darker turn. As the night unfolds, he crosses paths with a young trans woman who offers him her warm and disarming friendship. What begins as a moment of tension gradually transforms into a fragile connection, challenging his isolation and reshaping the emotional landscape of the night.
Presented at the Cortópolis Latin American Short Film Festival, the film explores themes of vulnerability, unexpected intimacy, and the quiet power of human connection in the most unlikely of encounters.
