Synopsis

"Revenge is beautiful."

1992: Colombia.

Cataleya Restrepo is only 9 years old when she witnesses the brutal murder of her parents and miraculously survives the massacre by managing to escape in the terrifying chaos erupting around her. She takes refuge in the United States with Emilio Restrepo (Cliff Curtis), her gangster uncle.

Fifteen years later, Cataleya works for him as a hit woman. Her calling card is an orchid drawn on the chests of her victims, which is also a message to her parents’ assassins. Cataleya is determined to have her revenge on those that ended her parents lives… even if it means losing everything she loves.

Directed by Olivier Megaton (TRANSPORTER 3), Zoe Saldana (AVATAR, STAR TREK) stars in the lead role in action/adventure movie COLOMBIANA, which is produced and written by Luc Besson (THE TRANSPORTER trilogy, TAKEN and LEON).
