After a successful theater run and several awards and laurels, Simón is finally available for streaming. The Venezuelan movie, which tells the story of a young freedom fighter who is taken and tortured by forces from Nicolás Maduro's regime, escapes to Miami and now battles his traumas while seeking political asylum, will premier on Netflix in Latin America and Spain and be available to rent through its official website in the U.S. and the rest of the world.
Simón has made waves in the festival circuit, garnering accolades such as best film at the 2023 Venezuelan Film Festival, Best International Feature Film at the Dallas International Film Festival and the Grand Prize at the Heartland International Film Festival in Indiana. It also represented Venezuela at the Goya Awards, the equivalent to the Academy Awards in Spain, eventually losing to powerhouse Society of the Snow.
