Wind Journey. Movie

Wind Journey, one of the movies of the season in Colombia, has been presented in the 7th Film Festival Medellín City. It was awarded with “City of Rome” in Cannes 2009 . The film of young Colombian director Ciro Guerra shows an original story set in the northern plains of the Caribbean region. It explores unusual views and corners of the country around the coastline people from the Sucre State to La Guajira Peninsula.

In an Andean nation usually presented as a mountainous region, Wind Journey explores the Colombia of the Vallenatos, Wayuus, Tierra Adentro and the splendid desserts of the northern Peninsula.

The traditional mistral (juglar), the same that originated the Colombian musician emblem (Vallenato), is represented by Ignacio Carillo, going from town to town and region to region with his accordion.

He decided to take a last trip throughout the northern region of Colombia, to give back the accordion to his elderly master. He was committed to stop playing after that.
