A Ausência Que Seremos

This film represents a reality in Latin American countries, where small elite groups manage politics and make decisions that affect many for their own benefits and economic interests, countries where a football game is promoted more than the importance of a good education, countries where few have all and most of the population nothing. Latin America has suffered since its conquest (NO DISCOVERY) in the 16th century and still continues to suffer new wounds while trying to heal the old ones. I have seen it and continue to see it in Honduras. Thank you for making this type of film, as well as "La Llorona" by Jayro Bustamante, cuz they allow these stories not to be lost as the intellectual authors of these crimes would like, they also help us to cure Latin America but do not forget. The technical aspect that I appreciated the most about the film was the black and white photography, really beautiful.

It's a good movie in general. But I think the movie gets short on terms of generating the feelings that the book transmits.

"El olvido que seremos" is a film with a particular feeling, highlighting the life of a man who fought for causes that are still of interest to the Colombian nation today. The way in which he approaches character development is appropriate and fits the Medellin's Society of the 70s and 80s, with an invaluable accuracy in the sets and costumes. The emotional relationship between shots and color to differentiate two different periods contribute to the greatness of the film, accompanied by good performances.

However, the film continues to depend on the original novel, and certain scenes do not have the same power that they surely have in the book and some errors in the editing that can be, rarely, stressful to the viewer, do not interfere with the fact that this film has a soul. , and very appropriate for our times.

Very mediocre film that lacks script. Mediocre directing and editing. The only remarkable thing is Javier Camara's and Patricia Tamayo's acting.

The story of Hector Abad Gomez is moving and a perfect example of what has meant to be a thoughtful and honest leader in a country like Colombia, but the movie is not the most interesting portray of that struggle, and tries to be faithful to the book forgetting that cinema is already a new language and therefore a new opportunity to tell a story.
