Colors of the Mountain, The

Gorgeous mountain scenery dominates this powerful, disturbing, realistic film in which an artistic 9-year-old student (Hernán Mauricio Ocampo) in Colombia must face the grim, harsh realities of life when guerillas threaten his peasants parents (Hernán Méndez and Carmen Torres), and the lives of two of his friends (Nolberto Sánchez and Genaro Aristizábal) are endangered when they all try to retrieve the soccer ball he received for his birthday from a grassy field filled with landmines.
