It’s time to support national talent. The day that Panamanian film fans have been waiting for so long has arrived thanks to Elmis Castillo and his film made in record time (18 days), without a budget (he even had to dig out of his own pocket), but perhaps the most important in recent years.
Why do we say this? Because at this moment, at the threshold of the May elections, thousands of Panamanians still doubt who to vote for, They have not immersed themselves in the candidates’ proposals but rather in the push and pull that prevails on social networks. With this scenario, for the first time in the democratic history of the Isthmus, it seems that a film, “Once upon a time in Panama”, can awaken the conscience of voters.

You will laugh, you will get angry, you will cry, you will feel the frustration when you see – despite the satire – how politicians play over and over again with the needs of the people and immerse them in the spiral where clientelism, cynicism and gambling converge. The film highlights how the health of the most humble people is played with, those who do not have private insurance, who live day to day, and they see their relatives die in the apathy of a worn-out, ruined and looted system.
The issue of Senniaf, the disappearance of fentanyl doses, of domestic violence, of the victims… those who do not have voices.
