Synopsis
Busco Personas takes a look at the forgotten faces of Colombia's 40-year-war by traveling to three distinct areas where paramilitary groups are running drugs and terrorizing communities. What started as a political conflict is now little more than a fight for drug money and territory, and it is innocent Colombians who are paying the price. Even though the oldest guerrilla group, the FARC, is crumbling and some paramilitary groups have disbanded, all this has done is create a power vacuum allowing younger, more vicious, and less ideological groups to emerge. Its a battle for money and territory, and its fueled by the largest cocaine trade in the world. The general relationship that has created violence in Colombia for more than 40 years has not changed. The film is set to the soundtrack of vibrant Colombian music from Grammy winning artists Juanes and Aterciopelados as well as newcomers ChocQuibTown.
