SYNOPSIS

“La Playita” or The Little Beach, is not located by the Caribbean Sea, however, it is full of coastal people; The Little Beach is a mini-mall (6 commercial spaces surrounding a small central square) located in the faraway and cold “refrigerator” city of Bogota: the capital. Bogota is a cold city on top of the mountains, at 2600 meters above the sea level and more than 2000 kilometers from the Caribbean coast. As any habitant from the coast would say: “it´s too far and too cold”. The Coastal colony lives in a neighborhood close to The Little Beach; they arrived at this extremely distant city and took over the place.

CAST

imagen sinopsis
Alberto Valdiri is SEÑOR ROCHA

A capital retired professor. He is an intolerant neighbor of the mall and lives in the same building where the coastal people are. He wants all those tacky people far away from the neighborhood. According to him, his place was a decent place before the “coastal plague” arrived. He complains all the time: he calls the Police because the music is too loud, because he doesn´t like the clientele, and he writes memos and infructuous petitions to get those people out.
