Join us on Thursday July 28rd 2026 for a special night celebrating ZonaSur Cinema Club, in collaboration with UPP. This unique evening will blend Latin American film and conversation.

Rain Over Babel (Colombia, 2025), directed by Gala del Sol – one of the most original and vibrant Colombian films of recent years. We are proud to present this exceptional work, with support from the BFI Film Audience Network, awarding funds from the National Lottery. Between future and past, in a city where all boundaries blur, lies the club Babel. Every night, lost souls gamble with the devilish landlady La Flaca for more time to live.

Rain Over Babel takes us into a trópico-punk universe where life, death, desire, and fantasy come together in Babel, a mysterious bar-purgatory inhabited by lost souls, fantastic creatures, and unforgettable characters.

Rain Over Babel director Gala del Sol will be joining us on the night, to take part in a conversation with the audience and a Q&A session with Lorena Briscoe, curator of ZonaSur Cinema Club. Together, we’ll explore the film, its themes and production, and its presence within the wider constellation of Colombian film and culture.
