La Libertad is a moving film that follows the story of a man, a woodcutter, who fights for his freedom against all odds. Through its powerful portrayal, the film explores themes of resilience, determination, and the price one is willing to pay for liberty.

It will follow Misael, the original’s lead character, continuing life in the woods as an independent logger, where he enjoys a “quiet freedom”; then, this relative liberty is disrupted when he’s forced to care for his older sister, and the sense of reason underpinning his life unravels.
