In the gritty outskirts of Medellín, Barrio Triste captures a hallucinatory day and night in the lives of youth navigating the raw edges of survival, desire, and escape. Through hypnotic imagery and a pulsating score by Arca, Stillz crafts a poetic portrait of street life where violence and tenderness coexist. With a loose, dreamlike narrative, the film drifts between moments of silence, chaos, and intimacy, as its characters search for meaning amid a crumbling urban reality. Executive produced by Harmony Korine, Barrio Triste is an audiovisual descent into the textures of marginalization and resilience, blurring the line between fiction, documentary, and music video.
