Description
Since 2019 (when this documentary was published), there have been many developments in the implementation of the peace agreement. Largely, peace has held but violence has increased again in recent years as some parts of the country have seen other guerrilla groups engage in violence.
This documentary acts as an explainer of Colombian’s violent history and transition towards peace until 2019, but more research should be done if learning about more recent developments.
