Description / Descripción
Ciro Galindo nació el 29 de agosto de 1952 en Colombia. Fuera donde fuera, la guerra siempre lo encontraba. Tras veinte años de amistad con Ciro, comprendí que su vida resumía la historia de Colombia. Como tantos colombianos, Ciro es un sobreviviente, que después de sesenta años de huir de la guerra, sueña con vivir en paz y con dignidad. (Film's Official Website)
Ciro Galindo was born on August 29, 1952, in Colombia. Wherever he went, war always found him. His children were recruited by the armies of war; his family was repeatedly displaced; and his wife Anita, an indigenous woman, died of sadness. Foreign to the system, but a victim of the system, Ciro has led a heroic anonymous struggle to live life on his own terms. After twenty years of friendship, I understood that Ciro’s life sums up the history of Colombia. He is a privileged on-site witness of a war that seems distant and confusing. Ciro and Me narrates Ciro’s journey to meet his past in a quest to rebuild his life and create a future for him and his son. Like so many Colombians, Ciro is a survivor who after sixty years of fleeing the war, dreams of living in peace and dignity. (Pragda)
