Synopsis
Roa is a Colombian feature film released in 2013. It was directed by Andrés Baiz, who also co-wrote the screenplay and starring Mauricio Puentes, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Santiago Rodríguez, Rebeca López, John Alex Toro, Carlos Manuel Vesga, Arturo Goetz, and César Bordón. It is a fictionalized account inspired by the final days in the life of Juan Roa Sierra, the man who was blamed for the 1948 assassination of Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, the charismatic liberal candidate for president. The film depicts Roa as an inept and naive pawn who was threatened and manipulated by powerful, shadowy figures into becoming the scapegoat for the assassination. It premiered as the opening film at the 53rd Cartagena International Film Festival in 2013.
