Falso documental

The film brings together fragments of press images related to the phenomenon known as "false positives" in Colombia. The video shows the bureaucratic action of stamping seals with the plus sign (+), which has the meaning of "positive." Newspaper clippings depicting victims and perpetrators of extrajudicial executions, on which red ink stamps are printed, flash by as the audio presents fragments of testimonies from perpetrators, some of whom acknowledge committing the crime while those most responsible persist in denying what happened and even justifying the murders committed against defenseless people. However, the documents and traces of the crimes (bodies, remains of objects or clothing belonging to the victims, testimonies) prove the perpetrators' responsibility, revealing the complex artifice they deployed to falsify their supposed efficiency at the expense of the defenseless population.
