Aldo is an aging, self-proclaimed prophet who lost a sense of meaning in his life—until Gabriel, a young follower who idolizes Aldo and still believes in his teachings, tracks him down and encourages him to return to preaching. Award-winning filmmakers Mariana Rondón and Marité Ugás craft a captivating story of faith, lies, and empathy. Contactado’s complex performances mirror each other’s evolving characters in this stunning portrayal of the power of faith—and deception.
