Chronic Youth Film Festival

Seamlessly blending fiction and reality, Theo Montoya’s intoxicating debut feature creates a ‘trans cinema’ that follows no rules. 

Set in the aftermath of the 2016 Colombian Peace Agreement, Anhell69 tells the story of a group of queer friends in Medellin as they navigate sex, drugs and a new nation still reeling from conflict. Based on a fictional film project of Montoya’s, Anhell69 explores what it means to tell stories about marginalised lives, culminating in a haunting meditation on friendship, death, and belonging.
