Only the director, cinematographer and protagonist (Anna Hutchinson) are foreigners.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are committed to local talent. We set up interdisciplinary groups of people from film and television. The idea of Caracol is to boost the national film industry and train our technicians in cinema,\u201d said Alejandro Toro, director of Caracol Television co-productions.<\/p>\n The film, a love story that takes place between coffee farms, with filmings in Medellin and its surrounding areas. \u201cWe want to take advantage of the extra 15% discount offered by the Film Commission of Medellin on the total expenditures executed in the city,\u201d added Toro.<\/p>\n Other locations include the Cauca Viejo urbanization, which has never before been shown in a film which serves to distort one paisa village. \u201cthe people Marvista tells us they had never seen so much green, so many mountains, so many slopes planted with coffee. In addition to the majesty of the landscape, they are surprised with the quality of the production achieved in Colombia. The balance is very positive,\u201d said Toro.<\/p>\n It is the first time Caracol participates in an international film production. Already had done it in television with Warner, Sony Pictures, Telemundo, Univision and Televisa.<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
