Cosme

2026 | B/N | 92:00

Alongside his teenage daughter Abril, Cosme travels from town to town in a battered van, making a living by performing on the street. When they return to his hometown, the ghosts of his past resurface: a broken family, old betrayals, and the life that might have been. As Cosme sinks into nostalgia and his own pride, Abril begins to discover the world on her own, with a lucidity that transcends her adolescence.
