(Colombia, 2002, 90 min. In Spanish with English subtitles)
TE BUSCO reconstructs William's memories of the time when as a precocious five-year-old boy he lived with his wildly imaginative uncle Gustavo. The boy becomes an accomplice in Gustavo's intricate mission to seduce Jazmín, a gorgeous singer that performs in a shopping mall in Bogotá. To pull this off, Gustavo hatches a plan to assemble his musician friends and forms a band for the sole purpose of inviting Jazmín to be the lead singer. The group has its moments of glory, and as William goes along with the dreams of his uncle, he discovers the meaning of love, friendship and betrayal. This hilarious film, filled with infectious Salsa music, was the highest grossing Colombia film when it opened in 2002.
