The femicide case of Colombian DJ Valentina Trespalacios will soon be brought to streaming platforms through two distinct projects: a Prime Video film and an HBO Max docuseries. Valentina's tragic story, which shocked Colombia in 2023, will be explored through different lenses in each medium.
Prime Video is set to release a fictional film titled "Valentina."

The production, a co-production between Zeppelin Studios and TIS Studios, will delve into Trespalacios' life, the investigation, and its impact on her family and public perception.
In contrast, HBO Max's docuseries will focus on the investigation and legal proceedings surrounding the femicide. Utilizing testimonies, documents, and archival material, the series will reconstruct the stages of the investigation and examine the judicial and social dimensions of the case. Produced by Zeppelin Studio, the docuseries has already completed production but has not yet received a confirmed HBO Max release date.
