Based on the only four surviving shots of the first Colombian silent film, MARÍA (1921), by directors Máximo Calvo (Colombia) and Alfredo del Diestro (Spain), IN SEARCH OF ‘MARIA’ combines historical research, interviews, and scenic reconstruction to rescue the memory of a lost film.

看看这段片尾导演对“黑人阿哥”的采访你就会知道为何这个原名叫Luis Alfonso Londoño的家伙是史上最牛非职业演员之一了。。。：） Carlos Mayolo: What would you say to those who make films? Luis Alfonso Londoño: Around here they say the cows that shit the best films are Americans, right? And they've been shitting for a while now, but not anymore.
