Following a successful festival run, Guatemalan film Cadejo Blanco will premiere here in London

Sarita’s sister doesn’t come home one night after a party. Convinced that her disappearance has something to do with Andrés, her sister’s dangerous ex, Sarita finds a way to befriend him and infiltrate his gang. With an unwavering determination to uncover the truth about what happened, Sarita becomes increasingly involved with Andrés and the ruthless, violent world of his gang.

2024 Independent Spirit Award nominee CADEJO BLANCO is “a nail-biting, evocative and utterly persuasive crime drama” (Screen International) from writer/director Justin Lerner (Girlfriend, The Automatic Hate) anchored by an incredible lead performance from Karen Martinez - “Martinez is a revelation” (Film Threat). The film premiered at TIFF.

Director Justin Lerner will join us for a post-screening Q&A.

The Q&A will be hosted by Cecilia Santamarina, a Guatemalan film producer and art and design curator (hyperlink https://ceciliasantamarina.com/bio/)
