Abstract:
La Sierra is an intense, unflinching documentary about several young people living in Medellin, Columbia. The town is perpetually caught in the crossfire between two warring factions--the guerillas and the paramilitary forces--and the film explores the burden of life during wartime with a personal and deeply unsettling focus -- description from CD universe.
