With this film, director Ali Triana, one of the most talented of a group of filmmakers enjoying a wave of critical and popular support in Colombia, achieved an unprecedented success in his country competing and surpassing the usual Hollywood blockbusters at the box office. A delirious satire and outrageously funny political commentary, "BOLIVAR SOY YO" spoofs that distinctive Latin American genre, the telenovela. Santiago, who plays the great revolutionary Simon Bolivar in "The Lovers of the Liberator", is in trouble. He’s so deeply committed to his role that he’s lost his own identity, and has come to believe that he is, in fact, Bolivar. He is also determined to finish Bolivar’s dream of creating the “Great Colombia”: a strong and unified state consisting of 5 Latin American countries that would combat the institutional chaos, lack of opportunity and ignite the rebuilding of a region that faced 160 years of internal war. Santiago’s folly is exploited by a group of celebrity-hungry politicians, but the star’s madness is stronger than they are. His determination to realize Bolivar’s dreams leads to escapades too bizarre for even the most outrageous telenovela!
