La estrategia del caracol (The Strategy of the Snail) · Sergio Cabrera · Colombia · 1993 · 112'
Residents of a poor neighbourhood in Bogotá unite to prevent their eviction from a building owned by a millionaire. Despite the fact that the confrontation they are engaged in seems lost in advance, they decide to follow the strategy proposed by Jacinto, an old Spanish anarchist.
"It’s the story of how individuals become a joint collective when they have a dream, an ideal. It is also, to a certain extent, a story that pays homage to political creativity and the permanent desire to change the world" (Sergio Cabrera).
