The vibrant colours and the texture give an idiosyncratic beauty to a film whose main character lives haunted by violent memories that are revealed as we get to know him better. ‘Pinky’ has fled a cult linked to a transcendent figure, but now he is unable to reconcile the turbulence he feels. An individual journey that intertwines with the social and political panorama of Colombia.
