Back To Life

(Vuelve a la vida)

In this autobiographical tale, teenager Ricardo returns home to Caracas after a year abroad in New York. He chooses to skip a surprise family vacation to travel along the Venezuelan coast with friends – but midway through the trip, he begins to experience an intense pain that leads to hospitalization and a diagnosis that will change his and his family’s lives forever. “Back to Life” is a heartwarming story about the power of family and keeping hope against all odds that pays loving homage to the cinema of the late 1990s, the era during which this film takes place.
