Prismatic Ground Presents:
COBRE / COPPER
(Nicolas Pereda, Mexico, 2025, 78 min. In Spanish with English subtitles)
Co-presented by Cinema Tropical
In a remote mining town, Lázaro, a young worker at a copper mine, stumbles upon a dead body on his way to work—making him the target of suspicion from both his community and even his own family. As a respiratory illness prevents him from working, doubts about his true condition grow, fueling rumors of his possible involvement in the tragedy. Lázaro finds solace in his aunt, only a few years his senior, as their relationship takes on an increasingly ambiguous nature. While the truth about the crime looms, Lázaro must confront not only the weight of suspicion, but also that of his own desire.
