SYNOPSIS

200 years after Simón Bolívar’s liberation campaign across Colombia, La Laguna del Soldado retraces The Liberator’s journey searching for glimpses of his ghost still present in this historically contested territory. La Laguna del Soldado traverses the páramo, a living and elusive archive, navigating through the dense fog suspended between Simon Bolivar’s past and Colombia’s present.

Balearic premiere. With the presence of the director.

Why must you see it?

A mesmerising voyage through Colombia with the spirit of Simón Bolívar, 200 years after the country’s independence. Among spectral landscapes, a territory that has been bleeding into the current day is revealed, forming a disruptive story full of exploration and complexity. Pablo Álvarez Mesa masterfully balances the conflict between unsettling nature and euphoric beauty.
