Germany 2015 / 6’
animation

Quimtai presents forms and designs that are the legacy of extinct Colombian cultures. Camilo Colmenares’s short film transports us not only back to the time of the ancestors of modern-day Colombians, but also, due to the form used in the film, back to a time when cinematic history was only just beginning.
