During the armed conflict that rocked Colombia for decades, thousands of everyday people were killed by the military and framed as combatants. It came to be known as the “false positives” scandal. This film gives an intimate look into the morally ambiguous, emotionally wrenching reality at the heart of the country’s Truth and Reconciliation process.

We were there to document one of the first times in the country’s history that victims confronted an army officer face to face. The encounter embodies the question: What happens when a country redefines justice not as punishment and vengeance, but as truth?
