History

Giovanni Quiroz was a shooting star. In a couple of years, he went from being a simple boy who was a vice shooter and thief in the Lovaina neighborhood of Medellín to parading down the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival in France in an elegant dress. Born in Medellin, he achieved fame when he played the character of El Zarco in the movie "La vendedora de rosas". After making several contacts, Gaviria and his friends were looking for an acting scholarship for him to study in Spain, but in those days he was killed in a street in his neighborhood, Lovaina.
