Description
Actor Arley de Jesús Carvallido Lobo is onscreen for almost all of this powerful drama, and he is unforgettable. He plays José, a fisherman whose two sons are abducted by paramilitaries. With little fuss or ceremony and almost certain knowledge that they aren’t alive, he travels downriver in search of their bodies. His journey – an odyssey in every sense of the word – puts him in contact with a range of humanity from the helpful to the barbaric. Very little in Gille’s absorbing film is rendered with words, but the weight of Colombia’s civil conflict is captured by the visual poetry of the camera’s eye.
