Extra-terrestrial entities as the last resort from terror

In the world of independent cinema, a new film titled "The End of the World According to Sofia" is making waves. Directed by Paloma Petra, details about this intriguing production are starting to emerge.

As of now, information on the film is limited, possibly due to its recent or independent nature, which may explain why it hasn't been widely distributed or covered in major film databases. However, what we do know is captivating.

Set at the turn of the millennium, this drama with comedic elements follows the story of a girl from a conservative, Catholic family where appearances were paramount. The girl, played by an ensemble cast that includes Isabella Puente, Dany Serna, David Angulo, Carola Cuarón, Carola Pruneda, and Alfonso Ríos Grant, finds herself part of a complicated family she yearns to escape from.

Paloma Petra, the actress who penned the story, made her directorial debut with this film. Intriguingly, she wrote a short film called 'Bubble Nest' beforehand, but it never saw the light of day due to financial constraints. Post-pandemic, she reworked 'Bubble Nest' to make it more filmable.

The resources for "The End of the World According to Sofia" came from Petra's own pocket and the rest of the team. Despite the humble beginnings, the film recently received support from Estudios Churubusco for post-production.

In addition to her directorial work, Petra will soon be seen in the Netflix series "Me late que sí", based on a lottery fraud that occurred in a TV broadcast in January 2012.
