​
Shortlisted for the Foreign Oscar, Birds of Passage traces the origins of the Colombian drug trade through the epic story of an indigenous Wayuu family that becomes involved in selling marijuana to American youth in the 1970s. Greed, passion and honour collide when a fratricidal war breaks out that will put their lives, their culture and their ancestral traditions at stake despite the opposition of fierce matriarch Úrsula (Carmiña Martínez). Soaked in Magical Realism with stunning cinematography, this violent saga unfolds against a vast landscape and like all classic tragedies with a foreboding sense of violent inevitability.
