    • Synopsis
    • This documentary follows the footsteps of the great Colombian master of horror Jairo Pinilla in his creative process and obstacles in the production of The Shadow of Death, first 3D horror film made in Colombia.
      Jairo Pinilla is the ultimate horror film precursor (Series-B) in Colombia, with more than a dozen feature films done. In the eighties, Pinilla surprised the world with movies that brought the dead back to life (27 hours with death / 1981), or a demon possessed wheel chair (Killer Chair 1984). Something happened at the height of his career, unknown so far making Jairo disappear from the world. Many legends were woven around his disappearance, some said he died, others said he was driving taxi.
      After 20 years in oblivion he is back to the film his last movie. The lack of film practice make things start to get out of hand. Its unusual process of directing his actress and his lack of tolerance deteriorates his relationship with them, to the point of making them quit,

      The lack of clarity of his producer makes the movie almost failure, to the point where ending the movie becomes an uncertainty, and he will start living a personal hell.

      This is a film inside a film, cinema inside cinema, about the love for cinema and its impossibility to make it.
