This is not a story about China
by Francisca Jiménez 15:17 Experimental
This Mockumentary is the appropriation of a war archive that narrates the story of Colombia’s invasion of China. The facts of this “false story” are developed by a woman, a fictional character who narrates from her own experience the event that apparently took place in 1984. This fiction is built from the relationship between symbols such as nationalism, heroism, homeland decay, and the subjective and narrative representation of the Colombian armed conflict.
