The actor Gerardo Romano, star of “Itzia, Tango y Cacao”, shares his experience in this Colombian production… “Colombia has great dramatic power, in its nature and in its way of speaking and of being in everyday life. It is a shame that because of the proximity to the United States, and what the giant of the north expects from that territory, we associate a spectacular country with cocaine. The Yankees need that production, and they play with it, affecting a reality; but the truth is that this is a film that goes against those common places: I liked something that is not about drugs, or chaos, but something sensitive, profound, outside of salesmanship.”

In its essence there is something else that should be underlined in this beautiful film: it is the first time that the cultivation of cacao is shown in a film, in addition to presenting it as a tool for peace because it replaces illicit activities.
