This sixth edition of Cinema Colombiano is focused on films made by women, transgender and non-binary people, who bring new perspectives about the social and political dynamics of Colombia. It is also the first time we have a whole festival day in Amsterdam. We will present two screenings containing two feature films and two shorts, and a DJ set by Mitze Apocalipze y Chucho Vinilo.

Nuestra voz de tierra, memoria y futuro
Marta Rodríguez & Jorge Silva | 1981 | Colombia | 108' | EN subs

Rodríguez was one of the first female filmmakers in Colombia. Her work is part of Third Cinema, a movement that arose in many parts of the global south using film as a tool for decolonization. In this recently restored film, we see the struggles for land and human rights of Native communities. Nuestra voz... explains much of what is happening nowadays in Colombia.

Fulhaché
Catalina Torres & Carolina Navas | 2019 | Colombia | 60' | EN subs

Nikol and Erika dance at the rhythms of Raggamuffin and “Salsa Choke” in their dance collective, but when the rehearsal ends, their blurred life projects keep developing in the hostile slum of Aguablanca District in Cali, Colombia. Their contrasting life stories are determined by violence but also by a resilient happiness, love for dancing and friendship. Nikol dreams to travel to the US to visit her boyfriend, but is afraid her visa will be rejected. Erika remembers her dead parents while worrying about her son’s future. This way, days go by in expectation of answers among dreams that stumble and new ones that rise in the look to become someone.
