Watch: Quito 2023 2013 123movies, Full Movie Online – Quito 2023 is a thriller/Sci-Fi feature film that focuses on the Ecuadorian capital, some years from now. After several internal political problems, a coup has left the country under military control. Quito is the last frontier, the city has been completely fenced, enclosed and sheltered. The film starts from this point and focuses on two locations only. One, the palace where the General Ponce, a cynical and cunning man who runs the party, and is in charge of the city. The second, the headquarters of a group of young revolutionaries led by Marcos and Santiago, two guys with completely different visions. Marcosis hungry for power and strength. The other, his buddy Santiago, a man that has lost all hope for a better tomorrow. The film, without any political agenda, focuses on the hours before the revolutionaries make their last attack with the goal of overthrowing the tyranny that surrounds the city. These two places and characters are woven together to tell a story that is directly based on dialog rather than in action, in which the attitude of each one of them is analyzed, between ambition, power, humility and faith of those who expect a better future. The conclusion is that this is perhaps not more than another case of a social upheaval in Latin America, where there is really no solution in a region characterized by high ungovernability and the ingenuity of his own people..
Plot: Is the year 2023. Quito has been walled by Leonardo Ponce, a military dictator that took control of the city in the early 2010’s. A group of revolutionaries led by Marcos and Santiago are on the verge of giving a coup d’état. Just hours before the strike, Santiago steps forward and starts asking tough questions that led everybody to rethink why are they really doing this. Meanwhile at Ponce’s palace, he is trying to decipher what is going on at the city wall. There’s unusual movement and one of the revolutionaries is captured. Ponce tries to get as much information as he can from him. Confined to just 2 locations, Quito 2023 shows the human side of the revolution, the internal conflicts of their leaders and the hopelessness of a region that cannot be governed.

Very innovative storytelling technique.
Just saw it in the theater last night. I was impressed that they managed to tell such a complex story on such a tiny budget. The set was limited to just two locations. The special effects were all in your head with the cameras cutting away at just the right moment to avoid the high cost of gunshots and explosions. As the climax approached, I realized they were doing this all with just actors, writers and cameras, so I was anxious to see how they were going to pull off the epic battle scene. Without giving away any spoilers, I have to say I was impressed by the way they did it. Theater of the mind in the theater! Bravo to these nascent filmmakers! I can’t wait to see what they do with a multimillion-dollar budget.
Never trust the city
In the year 2023 Quito, Ecuador is a walled in city controlled by General Ponce. We get to see Ponce and the rebels lead by Santiago and Marcos, but we never really see anything other than that, just the inside of a couple of buildings, filmed in three or four rooms. The theme of the film is the Animal Farm scenario which has worked its way into modern films (Hunger Games and Insurgent series to name two). It is listed a sci-fi, although the technology is contemporary and nothing to suggest this is science fiction other than it takes place in the future.I was rather bored listening to people talking during this “thriller.” English subtitles.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
