Carropasajero
The sound of metal creaking as if something is about to break. An old pickup truck adapted to carry passengers crosses the La Guajira desert in Colombia. With the wind come voices that merge among the passengers who travel there. A Wayuu woman returns to her territory, accompanied by her family, after years of exile. A cyclical journey where the time layers of the territory touch and the border between the living and the dead is diluted. How didn't you wake me up when my soul was leaving?
