Ciro Guerra and Christina Gallego

Colombian film director Ciro Guerra is best known for his 2015 film ‘Embrace of the Serpent’, which earned him an Oscar nomination. He returns this year with ‘Birds of Passage’ – a collaboration with producer Christina Gallego – which combines documentary-style film-making with drama to tell the story of Colombia’s marijuana trade over the latter half of the 20th century.
