About The King
Perico leaves the orphanage. Innocent and naive, he falls into the hands of people who rob him, but he is saved by Pepe, a roguish boy with a good heart. With him he begins a friendship that will lead him to different adventures, among which he will meet love, music and his idol Vico and his band Karicia
Directed by Juan Carlos Torrico, The King leans on a strong ensemble — Carlos Criado, Julio Marcone, Bélgica Rodas — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1987.
