When Karol G said Mañana Será Bonito, she meant it. And now, her foundation is putting those words into action. Starting in one of the most unexpected and powerful places: a women’s prison in Medellín.

The Con Cora Foundation Took “Tomorrow Was Beautiful” to El Pedregal Prison

According to a press release shared by the foundation, Karol G’s Con Cora Foundation hosted a special event at El Pedregal women’s prison in Medellín, Colombia. There, they screened her Netflix documentary Tomorrow Was Beautiful for incarcerated women.

The event featured two documentary screenings and an educational moment centered on nourishment and self-care. The foundation designed the day to be more than entertainment. It offered a rare moment of reflection, connection, and emotional restoration for the women inside.

Uplifting Incarcerated Women Through Art and Community

“Through the Con Cora Foundation, we’re proud to carry on our founder’s mission to uplift and empower women,” said Valentina Bueno, Executive Director of the foundation. “With the support of partner organizations, we are able to share this story—one of resilience and hope—with these women, hoping to inspire them to dream big and to chase their dreams. Because we believe they can make them into a reality.”

The statement was part of a broader message about the foundation’s commitment to creating safe, culturally rich spaces where underserved and marginalized women can feel seen.

Why the Con Cora Foundation Chose a Prison for This Screening

The decision to bring Tomorrow Was Beautiful to El Pedregal wasn’t random. As the foundation noted, many incarcerated women and those in adverse life situations face enormous barriers to accessing emotional, educational, and cultural resources. That includes everything from a lack of institutional support to ongoing social stigma and economic instability.

This event, made possible through the support of partner organizations like Fundación Acción Interna, Nosotras, and Familia, sought to challenge that. According to the release, menstrual health supplies were distributed to all attendees as part of the foundation’s holistic approach to promoting dignity and wellness.

The Power of Storytelling Inside Prison Walls

As Tomorrow Was Beautiful played on screen, the women of El Pedregal weren’t just watching Karol G’s life. They were watching a story of trauma, perseverance, and triumph that mirrors the complicated realities many of them face.

“Recognizing the barriers many incarcerated women and those in adverse situations face in accessing emotional, educational, and cultural spaces… Con Cora believes in the transformative power of art and storytelling to create lasting change,” the foundation shared.

In that spirit, the documentary became a tool not just for entertainment, but for restoration. It became a bridge between what has been and what could be.

The Con Cora Foundation’s Work Goes Beyond the Stage

The Con Cora Foundation was established to amplify Karol G’s commitment to social impact. Particularly for women and girls throughout Latin America. According to its website, the foundation promotes equity, empowerment, and access to mental, physical, and legal support through arts, education, and sports.

This latest initiative is part of a larger pattern in Karol G’s career: using her platform to center real stories and amplify the people who rarely get the spotlight.

For the women at El Pedregal, Tomorrow Was Beautiful was more than just a documentary. It was a reminder that healing, dignity, and dreams still belong to them, even behind bars.
