The title of the work makes an allusion to one of the phrases of the Colombian national anthem and it shows some videos from mid-last century captured by Roberto Restrepo, the director\u2019s grandfather. Within those images, there are many from El Bogotazo. The grandson used this material to make this fascinating audiovisual piece that helps to explain the context and the circumstances around this chapter of Colombian history.

The only thing everybody seems to agree on is that he died the same day as Gait\u00e1n: an enraged mob lynched him after he shot the Liberal leader and his body was eventually found in front of the Casa de Nari\u00f1o. He was 26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The historic downtown did not acquire its name by simple chance.
