IMDB

Porfirio Ramirez Aldana was a successful Colombian farmer and rancher who became involved in radical politics and was caught in the middle of a police raid in 1991, sustaining injuries that have confined him to a wheelchair. Aldana was also involved in an infamous 2005 hijacking attempt, and filmmaker Alejandro Landes offers a look into the day-to-day life of the notorious man in this drama. In Porfirio, Aldana plays himself as his life has taken a less-than-encouraging turn; he's lost his fortune and sells cell-phone time to scrape together a living, while also having to deal with the challenges of being handicapped. Porfirio deals bluntly with the realities of Aldana daily routine of getting around, keeping himself clean, eating, as well as his sexuality, and while Aldana's life may not be an easy one, he also gets through the days with an admirable amount of humor as he shares his inarguably remarkable story. Porfirio was an official selection at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival.
