Nestled in the mountains of Bogotá, an amateur theater group rehearses and stages the most famous of all plays, Oedipus Rex. Its members are musicians, actors, local artists, and some of them, users of crack cocaine. Testimonies about drugs, family, and the neighborhood—voices, hands, and faces, sometimes distant, sometimes fragile—contrast with the atmosphere of drums and incandescent lights of the theatrical creation. In the city's hills, Oedipus Rex is not an ancient play; it is a question about destiny, about the possibility of taking control of one's own life.
