Dry Martina

In the vibrant, sun-soaked streets of Santiago, Chile, “Dry Martina” tells the story of Martina, a once-thriving pop-star whose glittering career has dimmed. Now in her mid-thirties, she finds herself trapped in a world of missed opportunities and fading relevance. Martina has dedicated her life to creating catchy hits and dazzling performances, yet life outside the spotlight has left her feeling parched, emotionally and creatively.

As Martina grapples with her identity and the choices she’s made, she is forced to confront the harsh realities of her past. A chance encounter with Daniel, an aspiring filmmaker struggling to find his voice, sets her on an unexpected journey. His genuine admiration for her music reignites something inside her, and she reluctantly agrees to collaborate on a documentary that captures her rise and fall. What begins as a reluctant partnership soon evolves into a deep friendship, as Daniel pushes Martina to reflect on her life choices and the pressures of fame.

Surrounded by vibrant characters—her quirky roommate Sofía, a fiery drag queen who runs an underground cabaret, and Lucho, her loyal but overbearing manager—Martina’s journey becomes as much about rediscovery as it is about reclaiming her voice. As the documentary unfolds, each episode weaves together Martina’s past hits with the struggles of the present, exploring themes of resilience, authenticity, and the quest for happiness.

However, as the film approaches its climax, an unexpected twist forces Martina to confront the painful truths she had buried deep within. The world of fame is not just about the glitz; it’s also a minefield of insecurities, lost love, and personal demons. As tensions rise and secrets threaten to unravel, Martina realizes she must choose between living in the shadows of her past or stepping into a future where she defines success on her own terms.

“Dry Martina” is a poignant and humorous exploration of a woman rediscovering herself amidst the chaos of life, set against a backdrop of colorful music and unforgettable performances. It challenges the notion of what it means to truly live, inviting audiences to embrace the beauty of imperfections and the value of friendship and self-acceptance.
