Tierra adentro

Tierra adentro.

A primary jungle divides Colombia and Panama. Here guerrillas, drug traffickers, immigrants, indigenous people, farmers, wild animals and local police cross paths. The observation goes beyond the characters in this a no man’s land and focuses on the search for meaning in the jungle as a metaphor for the wild within us.
