Overview

Mudos testigos is a cinematographic collage made from all the surviving material of Colombian silent films, re-editing the images in such a way as to create a single imaginary film: the impossible love story of Efraín and Alicia that traces the convulsive first half of the twentieth century in Colombia. Compiled by the late Luis Ospina and finished posthumously by Jeronimo Atehortúa.

I was fascinated. What a great way to use archival material, and what a nice window into the past. It's very sad that we don't have many images of what Colombia and Bogotá was like in the 20-30-40's, but this definitely fills that empty space in a great way. There are some stilted sequences, but that doesn't detract from what a great piece of work this is and how well done it is. The story is dramatic, exactly as I wanted it to be and it's gripping. The third act is definitely the best part.
