In a genre-bending twist on Dante's Inferno, "Llueve sobre Babel" (2025) brings together a motley crew of misfits in a retro-futuristic, tropical-punk purgatory known as Babel, where La Flaca, the city's Grim Reaper, presides over a nightclub that doubles as a gamble for souls. As patrons vie to outwit Death Herself and secure their lives, the film weaves a dark comedy fantasy tale of desperation, redemption, and the power of performance. Set in Cali, Colombia, this coproduction of Colombia, Spain, and the US brings together a diverse cast of characters in a world that is both fantastical and eerily familiar.
