“Losing all the preconceptions that I had about storytelling, about the world, you know, and learning to see the world from a different perspective. It sounds romantic, but it's not an easy process at all.”

BIRDS OF PASSAGE

CIRO GUERRA, CRISTINA GALLEGO Colombia, 2018

Doubling down on the national mythmaking of his mesmerizing previous film Embrace of the Serpent, Ciro Guerra expands the parameters of genre filmmaking with this chimerical follow-up. A poetic examination of Colombia’s narcotics trade, Birds of Passage is an oneiric, unclassifiable triumph.
