Ciro and Me
Producer
Ciro Galindo was born on August 29th, 1952 in Colombia. Wherever he's gone, war has found him. After twenty years of friendship, I understood Ciro 's life sums up Colombia's history. As so many Colombians he is a survivor, who has run away from war for more than sixty years, and now dreams of living in peace. "Ciro and Me" is a journey to memory, seeking to give sorrow words; a journey, similar to that of Colombia in times of peace, in search to recover its dignity.
Carta a una sombra
Producer
In August 1987, Héctor Abad Gómez was murdered on the streets of downtown Medellín during the darkest moments of the dirty war against the Colombian left. Why was he killed? Who could have had a vested interest in silencing a university professor, human rights activist and doctor who was a precursor of the concept of "public health" in Colombia?
