Robert Brand Ordoñez
Robert Brand Ordóñez studied film at the National University of Colombia in Bogotá. His stories deal with the theme of violence from a spiritual as well as a realistic perspective. The songs and beliefs of Afro-Colombians and the magic of the spirits of the Putumayo jungle play a major part in this. Ordóñez is currently working on his first feature film.
