Félix Rodríguez

Died in 1931

Félix Joaquín Rodríguez, born in Santander, a lawyer by training, painter and poet, ran film theatres in the provinces for a time and spent time in the United States, where he worked as an extra. Back home, he wrote a comedy, brought it to the screen and did everything himself: screenplay, direction, sets, camera, editing and developing. His performers were his friends and young people he knew. He died in Bogotá in 1931, five years after this work, which would remain his only one.
