Only Four Steps

Paradise is only a few steps away. Escaping it is another story.

Directed by Marco Vélez Esquivia

After years living abroad in Turin, Lorena returns to Colombia with her charismatic husband Filippo and their ten-year-old son, settling into an imposing country home promised as a fresh start. But as Lorena attempts to reclaim her professional autonomy and rebuild a life of her own, Filippo’s subtle emotional manipulation, chronic ailments, and the sudden arrival of her overbearing mother-in-law tighten around her like a vice. Trapped beneath the polished facade of suburban domesticity, Lorena must confront the psychological walls enclosing her family before she completely disappears.
