Plot – Spoilers:
Set in a derelict town of Bogota, Colombia, Orozco the Embalmer is a documentary that follows an experienced embalmer Froilan Orozco and his fellowmen as they deal with the almost daily influx of accident and murder victims. The process of making a dead body presentable to family members is unflinchingly captured and what makes it a hard hitting work is the depressing shadow of the townsfolk who live their lives around the bodies constantly littering their streets.
It also provides a perhaps shocking insight into how resilient a dead body can be to crude, rude handling by rusty, seemingly inappropriate implements. And yet how effective and efficient these scrap tools can be in the hands of skilled and experienced men.
“Orozco the Embalmer” works at a funeral parlor in the heart of a slum in Bogota, Colombia and, with all the crime and violence in the area, business is booming. Throughout the course of his life Orozco embalmed over 50,000 people. That is fucking insane! Worse still is that he died without a penny to his name. This is the 3rd time I’ve seen this film. I’m not keen on watching embalmers prepare corpses for funerals but this documentary is truly fascinating. 5 stars.
My hungry ass could NOT be an embalmer
Cual es el fin de esta pelicula? Porque lo que hace el viejo Orozco es hacer pesimo el trabajo! Un desastre!
colombia pais de asqueroso todo pobre, quien mierda quisiera vivir ahi. 🤮🤮
Today is my birthday, 13 January 😔I’m now 20. Can feel the pain.
God the subtitles are plain skin cancer. I’m native spanish speaker and I can’t believe how bad the translation is. Just one example: at 10:11 as Orozco picks up the baby the subtitle reads “Why not, bitch?” but he is actually saying “Murió en el hospital” this means “She died at the hospital”.
Roughly 70% of the translation is terribly off. The other 30 is mediocre at best.
Great documentary, R.I.P Orozco
