Under the Antioquian Sky (Spanish: Bajo el cielo antioqueño) is a 1925 Colombian silent film written and directed by Arturo Acevedo Vallarino.
Romantic drama of manners. Lina, graceful schoolgirl, argues against the will of his father, Don Bernardo, a romance with Alvaro, a young bohemian who squanders his fortune. They decide to escape from parental supervision, but in the train station a beggar hurt warns Lina about the serious error being committed. He bandages the wound with a tissue in which are inscribed his initials and she gratefully gives him her jewels and in turn tells her boyfriend not to pursue this adventure. The beggar is assaulted and murdered. His body appears with the handkerchief of Alvaro, who is accused of the crime. Although he is innocent, he stays silent to protect Lina and this, above his honor, confesses the truth. Alvaro, and innocent, is gold and ends happily married to Lina.
