Roberto Farías


Octavio
Boxeador osornino de 30 años, talentoso como deportista, en algún momento se perfilaba como una promesa, pero su temperamento y la decadencia del boxeo no le permitieron crecer en este medio. Octavio nunca habla de su pasado, al parecer no tiene buenos recuerdos. Vive en el gimnasio, ayudando al entrenamiento de jóvenes como labor social y se mantiene económicamente con alguna pelea que le arma de vez en cuando Don Chalo, su entrenador.
Octavio es un hombre solitario que nunca a podido tener nada propio, en el momento que algo o alguien pueda ser suyo, se aferra y obsesiona, su inseguridad lo nubla y afloran los celos.
Afortunadamente en su vida se ha topado con buenas personas que lo han ayudado, aprendió a cortar el pelo para mantenerse económicamente, herramienta que lo ayuda en su llegada a Santiago. Octavio tiene un carisma y simpatía que hace que la gente lo apoye para poder surgir en la vida

Octavio

30 year-old boxer from Osorno, talented athlete, his career seems promising, but his temperament and the decadence of the sport do not permit him to grow in the scene. Octavio never speaks of his past, it seems that there is not many good memories. He lives at the Osorno Gym, he takes care of it and helps Don Chalo train young boys as social labor. He supports himself with the few fights his trainer sets up for him. He is a loner who has never had anything to call his own, when something or someone can be his, he holds on and obsesses. His insecurity clouds him and his jealously flourishes.
Fortunately, he has run into good people that have helped him, and taught him to cut hair to make a living, a tool that helps him in his move to Santiago. Octavio’s charisma and friendliness has made people help and support him throughout his life.
