Colombia, on the banks of Magdalena River, 2002. José (non-professional actor Arley De Jesús Carvallido Lobo, in his first role) returns to his home deep in the jungle after a long night of fishing to discover that soldiers of a right-wing paramilitary group have killed his two sons, Dionisio and Rafael, and thrown their bodies into the river. Knowing that local paramilitary leaders have forbidden the removal of bodies from the Magdalena, José begins a long, lonely and treacherous journey to retrieve and provide a proper burial for his boys, in order to save their souls from eternal limbo. Aboard his canoe, throughout his odyssey, José discovers the beauty and tragedy of a country torn to pieces by deep divisions and civil war. This powerful narrative debut from documentarian Nicolás Rincón Gille (NOCHE HERIDA, LOS ABRAZOS DEL RÍO) is a truly immersive elegy in which José's Dante-like journey into a purgatory of human construction assumes mythic proportions.
