I Want to Live

A young Colombian hitman, living under a suspended death sentence, attempts to find redemption in France thanks to a 20-year-old French woman.

Marie first discovered him on television when a documentary about child hitmen in Colombia aired in France.

The documentary follows a human tragedy trying to escape a macabre ending: Oscar, known as Mechas, has been a sicario in Medellín since the age of 15.

The camera follows his fears and hopes in Paris. Oscar wants to turn the page and live like an ordinary man.

This documentary opens a necessary debate about these lost children.
