    Corta by Felipe Guerrero

     


    Filmmaker Felipe Guerrero takes a unique approach to the life of the Sugarcane cutters of Valle del Cauca, Colombia, in the west of the country, when he films their daily tasks with the coldness and distance necessary to make a kind of visual essay on the work and movements of the human bodies amidst the intimidating and leafy cane fields.
