Sinopsis: Lo que puede representar el encierro para una persona. Las emociones, cambios, incertidumbres y traumas que se generan en un espacio/situación límite. Lugar desde donde se construye una particular forma de ver la vida y la libertad. In this distinct, sometimes poetic film, form and content are equally important. Every image is carefully framed and can go out of focus or rather re-establish it. In The Chirola, former convict Padro Cajias tells his story in a fragmented monologue. He saw his long incarceration among murderers, rebels and paramilitaries as a punishment. For him, it was a relief, a long vacation after a turbulent period. In addition to structure, life in prison offered him companionship and better health. He put on weight, worked out a lot, and actually had considerable difficulty when he became aware that his release was coming up.
