Pedales

About This Movie

Pedales is a quiet exploration of childhood and the paths we take, rooted deep in the landscape of Sierra de Ríos. It’s not the flashiest film, but there's an authenticity in its slow pacing, letting moments breathe. The atmosphere is dense, almost palpable, with the natural setting reflecting the inner turmoil of young Yeison Montiel as he grapples with identity and belonging. The lack of a known director adds an air of mystery to the film, and it feels like a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. The performances are raw, particularly from the young lead, capturing the essence of innocence tinged with life’s complexities. There's something about its unrefined approach that makes it stand out, a poignant narrative that’s both haunting and gentle.
