El Inca (2016)

Steeped in the raw energy and passion of the boxing ring, 'EL INCA' is an intensely gripping saga that intricately weaves the triumphant and tragic tale of Edwin "El Inca" Valero, the revered Latin American boxer and Guinness World Record holder acknowledged for his stunning record of 27 knockout victories. Emerging from the Venezuelan Andes, Valero's dynamic charisma and unmatched prowess in the ring takes him to global heights, drawing audiences worldwide to his thrilling performances. However, as the spotlight on his professional career intensifies, the shadows in his personal life deepen. Torn between the loyalty to his wife and an illicit relationship, Valero finds himself ensnared in a web of infidelity, insecurities, and escalating drug addiction, spiraling him towards self-destruction. A poignant exploration of a man who, despite his extraordinary talent and success, ultimately becomes a victim of his own excesses and overwhelming fears. 'EL INCA' is as compelling and controversial as the life of its protagonist. After a successful theatrical run, this powerful biographical drama was abruptly censored by the Venezuelan government at the end of 2016. Despite a brief revival in June 2017 following a successful appeal by Pa'los Panas Producciones, the film was once again removed from theaters by the Supreme Court. The final verdict still hangs in the balance. This compelling film, steeped in controversy and resilience, was Venezuela's official entry for the 90th Academy Awards.

El Inca is a drama movie featuring Alexander Leterni and directed by Ignacio Castillo Cottin.

El Inca is currently streaming on fuboTV.
