The Strategy of the Snail

The tenants of a crumbling mansion in Bogotá receive an eviction notice, their home slated for demolition to make way for modern development. Refusing to surrender, this motley crew of retirees, teachers, and dreamers concocts an ingenious plan of resistance, led by the philosophical Don Jacinto. What begins as a desperate act of self-preservation evolves into a brilliantly orchestrated campaign of civil disobedience, where each resident discovers hidden strengths and contradictions. As they face off against a ruthless landlord and his unscrupulous lawyer, their collective ingenuity turns the house into a fortress of wit, challenging the very notion of progress and property.
