    • Synopsis
    • Maleïwa is a young mercenary cab driver who traffics outlaws on illegal roads on the border between cities "X" and "Y", with the help of Apüna, her mentor and the architect of these secret routes.
      Maléiwa, our protagonist, is an intersex mestizo person of fluid gender: when she is near X her features are feminized, and she is called Malé, and when she is near Y her phenotype is masculinized and she is called Iwa.
      FILO is a mini action series (9x9') that reimagines characters and situations of the northwestern border between Venezuela and Colombia in a dystopian future.
      The series takes concrete elements from the Colombian/Venezuelan guajira, and stylizes and transgresses them until the universe becomes a non-place in the SOUTH.
