La Primera Noche (English: The First Night) is a 2003 Colombian film, directed by Luis Alberto Restrepo. The film won 18 International Awards and was Colombia's submission for the Academy Awards in the Best Foreign Language Film category in 2004. Even though the movie was highly acclaimed, after being released in some festivals throughout the United States, it never made it to big theaters. After 3 years of theatrical release, the film was released on DVD in the United States on January 30, 2007.
La Primera Noche tells the story of a pair of farmers who have been displaced from their territory - a place isolated from this world, in which they have lived their childhood and their youth - and have been brutally sent to face the streets of an unknown city, enormous and ruthless.
The conflicts of this country condemns Toño (Toro) and Paulina (Lizarazo), the protagonists, to the exile, but they live another drama that torments them. The suffering, the disappointment, the loving disappointment nests in their interior. Each of them feels lonely, incapable of assuming the pain of the other, and much less to see themselves as part of a couple. Their passion could open the door than no one will, but Toño and Paulina find in love the force that repels them and that does not help them survive.

Ahora la noche me cubre
Y con luces la ciudad.
La noche se vuelve siluetas
Y espejismos al mirar.
La noche se vuelve pasión
Blues delirio y rock and rool.
Y aquí estoy para resistir el temblor,
Y aquí estoy para aguantar el vendaval
Y aquí estoy
No he dejado de respirar.
Ahora la música ronda tu cerebro sin parar.
Ahora no mires con tus ojos de incredulidad.
La noche con su vestimenta
Cubre a todos por igual.
La noche te invita a su fiesta
