Te Busco (I'm Looking For
You)
Colombia, 2002, 90 min. Directed by Ricardo Coral Dorado. This film is
on Betacam SP.
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.
