The title refers to the historic 'March of silence', impulsed by presidential candidate Jorge Eliécer Gaitán a few months before his murder in 1948, after which the country got immersed in a war that tore it to the core and, despite efforts as the agrarian reform of 1961, violence always prevailed. Through photography, video and performance, "March of Silence" creates a contemplative experience with an audio undertone of historic radio excerpts of key speeches in the country's tortuous past. The images of decrepit railroads and train stations in Colombia, in stark contrast with the image of the main performer wandering the train tracks of the first world, shape a nostalgic yet critical portrait of a country that is still struggling to come out of a permanent crisis.
