Award winning documentary. 'In the past decade over 35,000 people have been killed in Colombia's bloody civil conflict. The fourty-year-old conflict has slowly moved from the jungles to cities such as Medellin, where urban gangs aligned themselves either with leftist guerillas or right-wing paramilitary groups.
"LA SIERRA traces a year in the life of three young people in a Medellin barrio: Edison, the charismatic gang leader and playboy who has fathered six children with six different women; Cielo, a widowed mother with a paramilitary boyfriend in jail, as she struggles to avoid becoming a prostitute; and Jesus, a young gangster whose readiness for death fuses with his indulgence in drugs.
