Some surprises are meticulously organized down to every detail and executed in the most everyday location.
Outside a job site in San Jose, Costa Rica, Mauricio is seen talking on the phone while Horacio strolls by.
"Both are my wife’s siblings. The one who is hidden and on the phone is my brother-in-law, Mauricio. He has spent many years living in the United States and hadn't seen his elder brother, Horacio, for quite some time. He arrived as a surprise, and I thought of the idea to take him to his brother's workplace for the big reveal. The intention was for him to call asking for a favor, making Horacio believe that everything was normal in the U.S.," the filmer shared with WooGlobe.
As the call goes on, Mauricio is still in sight, and the scene changes when Horacio spots him, leading them to approach one another.
The arrangement allows everything to seem routine until the moment of recognition occurs.
It concludes with a serene and genuine reunion amid a regular workday.
