Uz, el pueblo By Gabriel Calderón. Directed by Marcela Muñoz.
Grace and her family lead a perfect life in the quiet town of Uz. Everything seems in order until she loses her job at the church. With two children to care for, her world begins to fall apart. But in the midst of despair, Grace receives an unexpected message: God Himself speaks to her! What first appears to be a sign of hope soon unleashes a whirlwind that plunges the entire town into a delirious frenzy.
Uz, the Town, by Gabriel Calderón, is a sharp and provocative comedy that blends dark humor, irony, and biblical myths to push us to the limits of our convictions. An experience that will make you laugh, squirm, and reflect on what happens when faith turns into fanaticism.
Recommended for ages 17 and up. IN SPANISH WITH ENGLISH SUPERTITLES
