Onda Corta

Set in a small town in central west Venezuela, Onda Corta tells the story of Ramón, the sole taxi driver who spends his free time immersed in his hobby of shortwave radio. His fascination with the radio creates a disconnect between him and the townspeople, particularly when he claims to have befriended the King of Spain.

This short film captures a unique moment in Venezuelan cinema, showcasing the cultural nuances of a small community in the late 1970s. The film features a cast including Gonzalo Cubero, Antonio Delli, Armando Gota, and others, who bring the story to life. The production involves Triternal Studios and Xenon Films, with backing from the National Autonomous Center of Cinematography (CNAC).
