Silencio en el paraíso (2011)

Silencio en el paraíso: Directed by Colbert Garcia. With Alejandro Aguilar, Linda Baldrich, Francisco Bolívar, David Trejos. The hardships of life in El Paraiso, an impoverished neighborhood of Bogotá takes its toll on the love of two young people.

“A kind of anti-promotion for the city of Bogota in Colombia where the urban squalor is home to a variety of people living their lives. The young man at the centre of the action resourcefully acts as a bike mounted hawker who finds both sex and love before being caught up in a quite shocking military scam. The voices of the mothers of the disappeared provides a poignant conclusion to this stunning film.”
