MARCH OF SILENCE, 16min., Columbia
Directed by Santiago Echeverry, Sandra Liliana Rengifo, Kostas Tsanakas
'March of Silence' is a work that studies the recent history of Colombia through the eyes of the members of the collective "Post Punk Revolutionary Front" (FPPR). Combining the radio memory of the country in contrast to its ruined railway landscapes, this triptych video seeks to understand the relationship that each of the members of the FPPR has with a country that leaves an indelible mark on each of them: Sandra as a resident, Kostas as foreigner, and Santiago as a member of the Colombian diaspora.
