Triple Agent. Critical films on the identity stereotypes that are still prevalent in the cultural imaginary of Colombia
Together with Carlos Mayolo, Luis Ospina has directed some of the most incisive and critical films on the identity stereotypes that are still prevalent in the cultural imaginary of Colombia and, by extension, Latin America. "Triple Agent" shows, through four sessions with participation from Ospina in person, the role the Colombian film-maker undertakes in his relationship to multiple debates, movements and schools - from militant cinema in the 1960s and 1970s to 1980s activism, from documentary realism to the poetics of underdevelopment. Despite his constant participation in all of them, he also exposes their biased inclination towards stereotypes or towards representative paternalism and perpetually explores their critical tension. Organised by Museo Reina Sofia in collaboration with Government of Colombia, in the framework of ARCO Colombia 2015. Curator Chema Gonzalez. 26, 27 February 2, 3 March, 2015 - 7:00 p.m.
