AND THE TRUTH WILL MAKE YOU FREE! Dearest
Speaking of the LGBT movement ( Lesb ian as, Gays, Trans exu ales and Bise Xuala , for those who do not yet sound the flute!), I thought that in Colombia we were still in the era of the cave, where it was important to animal muscle power to rip each other's throats when he did not think like us and if we had a gun in his hand, for "machine" or "palletized" (read: kill him!). It seems that I brought with me some memory petrified, and my desire to believe that things evolve, I am surprised to read a statement from an association that is appearing in newspapers nationwide, and no wonder if is that this organization, but takes very little time, seems to have done more than I ever thought it could happen in our little bit of land of the "Sacred Heart", an association called DIVERSE COLOMBIA. It has been planted as a light source to "illuminate" once and for all those who, like Alfonso López Trujillo (President of the Pontifical Council for the Family), they think that homosexuals are animals, beasts, sick, bugs, viruses, in order ... everything small and square their minds to create, believe and do believe. Well, last week in Spain, will be decided favorably, I hope, the right of any human being regardless of sexual orientation to marry and have the same rights as any other couple that ever lived, the law recognizing the different rights and course duties. With all this, on 2 July, the day of the LGBT Pride march will be full of colors and especially LIGHT ... light to the minds that refuse to let go and who persist to maintain the perpetual darkness and perfect medieval Catholicism. And that's not all, on July 3 at 1 pm, in Bogotá, will start ooootra LGBT Pride, which will walk from the Planetarium to the Plaza Bolivar. This is real progress and pa 'in front, it sounds redundant. I almost did not believe me ... Well, I invite those who can go, not only can participate in many ways, because there are special programs for each city ... please watch the programming that appears on the website of the organization. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL AND ALL IN COLOMBIA. He'll be the light ... and like the truth ... WE WILL FREE!
hearted losers winners PANDORGUERITIS
is very easy to go to the movies and critique a work without question the origin of it, happens a lot, but this time, I found the sharpness with which has managed to show a fellow outspoken without the props and in many cases the support of the breast that feeds the political life in countries like mine (but not exclusively!). When I see things well how are you, I am proud to be a "human being Colombian, and I have less afraid to go forward with what I propose, because they are made by characters who, like many others have had to leave our country live a life more akin to what we expect and we realize that things are so different from the outside. The book's author has spoken of a sense of "get defeated in court," typical of his character, Victor Silampos, and with much sadness, I realize that it is the same one with which many of us have to eat breakfast every day . Anyway ... I found on Yahoo some interesting production notes for the film currently being exhibited in Spain "Method of Losing" , directed by Sergio Cabrera, Jorge Goldenberg's screenplay based on novel by Santiago Gamboa. The director notes that for many years :..." had a desire to make a film that is perhaps the greatest threat to democracy in Colombia: corruption. And I can not deny that I passed by Congress a few years ago sharpened the old desire. Just was in those days when it fell into my hands a copy of Losing method. The title of the novel by Santiago Gamboa ( interviewed by the newspaper El Pais of Colombia) and promised a space where they could live for many of these endearing heart winners losers who inhabit the world that I like to imagine, that of who believe in justice and are willing to fight all the crap that pollutes, even knowing that they are intended to defeat. As I started reading the novel, I realized that there was room not only for the romantics, there was also portrayed the slimy and disgusting world of speculators and corrupt, and the gangs that organize the shelter of small spaces that the state leaves them free to enrich themselves at will. It was at that moment in the novel when I saw a movie, a movie that I like to watch and I like to shoot, because the conflicts generated by these two radical and contradictory society looks are the essence of Losing method and have a certain way also been the essence of my film.
