The protagonists don't speak - which only makes the images all the more telling in this drama about three women who manage to escape a dangerous war situation in different places in the jungle. One day, La Mona stabs her sleeping boyfriend, a brutal paramilitary commander. She flees. A second woman, Rocío, also has to leave her place of residence, as it is surrounded by paramilitary troops. Nelsa is one of the paramilitaries, but she turns her back on them after being forced to bury the dismembered bodies of executed farmers.
Rocío is attacked by soldiers in a bus deep in the rainforest, while La Mona struggles through a river. Meanwhile, Nelsa continues her journey in a pick-up truck with the man who helped her desert. On their way to Bogotá, all three women come across other displaced persons - the desplazados - as well as demonstrators carrying photos of their lost loved ones.

Genocide as a tableau vivant. A film strongly inspired by the Argentine school of emptied narration, which in several places unobtrusively touches the depths of despair and belonging. It is a pity that Guerrero sometimes struggles with the wordless method and contrasts of objectivity/enigmatism. But as a debut it is respectable and impressive. #kviff2016
