A PIECE OF PEACE

A Piece of Peace is an 8-episode series based on the real-life stories of survivors, supporters, and skeptics of the peace process between the Colombian government and the FARC. In each 5-minute chapter we follow a first-person testimony that recounts how the war has affected his personal life and reflects on the real possibilities of peace.
