About Yo soy un político
Carlos is an ex-con looking for a job where he earns a lot of money without having to work hard. After discussing it with his cellmate, they conclude that the only work to fit the description is to be politician in Puerto Rico. Carlos decides to run for Governor, like every politician always seeking for the best for his country, and of course, looking for what's best for him.
Directed by Javier Colón Ríos, Yo soy un político leans on a strong ensemble — Carlos Marchand, Lillian Hurst, Héctor Oliveras García — 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 2016.
