Video-Trilogy. A collective tribute to the victims of violence generated by narcotrafick in Colombia. In November 27, 1989, 107 people died in an Avianca airplane
(Boeing HK1803) when a bomb exploded inside the aircraft. It was a terrorist attack by the Medellin Cartel. 20 years later, 90 Colombians wrote phrases or created images (responses to the memory of this terrorist attack) and buried them 8 feet underground. This "tomb" will be opened in 2034 and a new generation will have to read them again.
