Middle-aged and erratic, Oscar is a failed writer drifting through Medellín in a drunken stupor, lamenting the state of literature in his home country, where he has succumbed to the cliché of the tortured artist, basically one unpaid Substack away from a complete breakdown. #apoet

Mind Over Merlot I told my friend a $2 wine was worth $17,000. He believed me.

I was in Iceland with a bottle of battery-acid wine from a cheap Paris hotel. Before it hit the moss, I tried something. "Imagine this is a legendary 1923 vintage worth $17,000. Now drink." New essay #Sideways #APoet #Wine #IndieFilm #Cinema #Merlot #Perception www.cinemaverses.com/p/mind-over-...

A Poet Review: An Insane Film At the start of the year, Simón Mesa Soto’s A Poet already positions itself as an unforgettable film that's both morbidly funny and profoundly human.

Simón Mesa Soto’s A Poet (Un Poeta) is a darkly comic, bittersweet tale starring Ubeimar Ríos as Oscar Restrepo, a washed-up poet slipping into obscurity, and Rebeca Andrade as Yurlady, a sharp-eyed teenager whose raw talent draws him into a mentorship. #APoet

Simón Mesa Soto’s Un Certain Regard jury prize winner #APoet is a darkly humorous, cautionary character study in letting one’s long-lost creative dreams drive every decision in life.
