The marimba and the balafon are magical instruments connected in their past, which are expressed in the black and mestizo sounds of popular music, folk music, and jazz. We traveled through three continents; we met iconic players of the marimba and the balafon. We reviewed the film and photographic archives that revealed the deep musical relationship between Senegal, Mexico, Germany, Ecuador, the United States, and Colombia.

The documentary “The Double Kidnapping of Sigifredo Lopez” tells the shocking story of the 12 deputies from Valle del Cauca who were kidnapped by the FARC-EP in 2002, and the only person who survived: Sigifredo Lopez. After being held captive, Lopez was released, but he became embroiled in a political controversy over his alleged involvement in the kidnapping and death of his colleagues. The documentary explores the truth behind these events and how, almost 20 years later, some of the questions are being answered.

Why most lobotomies in the world were done on us women.

Ana Rosa is a journey into the history of psychiatry.
