Overview

Paola is born in a traditional Colombian family, or at least that is what they try to be. Her father is a priest, her mother is a "psychic" and her sisters are not what their parents expected. She is a young Latin American woman struggling for her independence in a hard context full of stereotypes and appearances not being able to fit in any mold. With a unique feminine vision of the world this girl learns to live while she lives as she witnesses a series of small crises that shape her personality.

As we watch Paola's birth and follow her up to young adulthood, often through dark and unforgiving circumstance, the film showcases the relationships and friendships that come and go as one grows up and struggles to find a fulfilling existence. 'Virus Tropical' covers familiar ground, as far as autobiographical films go, but the details ring true, and the film's heartfelt honesty enlivens every scene. - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-virus-tropical-an-animated-slice-of-life-from-colombia
