Memories of My Father

Directed by Fernando Trueba

With Javier Cámara, Daniela Abad Lombana, Aída Morales, Patricia Tamayo and Juan Pablo Urrego

In the polarized and violent Medellín (Colombia's 'City of Eternal Spring') of the 1970s, doctor Héctor Abad Gómez is concerned about both his children and children from less favored classes. After a devastating loss in the family, Héctor gives himself to the greater cause of public health programs for the poor in Medellín to the consternation of the city's authorities.
