About Awareness
Ian is a teen living with his father on the city outskirts, eking out a living with small cons that hinge on his unusual talent for shaping visual illusions. He uses these tricks to misdirect victims and skim a bit of cash, never imagining how far one misstep will travel. When a single scheme blows up, his abilities erupt in the open and he becomes a beacon for danger. Two rival factions close in, each eager to harness his power for their own ends, dragging Ian into a high stakes tug of war that threatens his family and future. People around him fear what his abilities may unleash next. This tension fuels the chase without cheap solutions or easy answers.
Directed by Daniel Benmayor and developed from an original concept by Iván Ledesma, Awareness blends science fiction with action driven by a tense locale and a tight, contemporary vibe that sits squarely in the genre landscape. It released in 2023.
