Ordinary Colombian farmer finds a pile of corpses in a field of maize one morning. He reports the mysterious bloodbath to the authorities, but on election day the authorities are not what they should be. A tragicomic allegory, is what they call that. Or a worrying drama. Carlos Moreno, who portrayed the overheated and violent absurdity of Colombian urban machismo a couple of years ago in DOG EAT DOG, situated his second film in the Colombian countryside. The story is gruesomely simple: a simple farmer finds an enormous pile of corpses early one Sunday morning in his corn field. Shocked and furious, he reports it to the local authorities, but they have good reasons not to want to acknowledge the affair.
