Post-Conflict Visual Ecologies: Violence and Slow Violence in Chocó by Jhonny Hendrix Hinestroza and La tierra y la sombra by César Augusto Acevedo

This article explores the imbrication of violence and slow violence in the films Chocó (2012) by Jhonny Hendrix Hinestroza and La tierra y la sombra (2015) by César Augusto Acevedo. Specifically, I study the connections between representations of the Colombian conflict and systemic violence and representations of ecological crisis to show how this imbrication provides a possibility for a wide discussion on how to understand the Colombian post-conflict through a lens that pays attention not only to the direct consequences of the conflict, but considers ecological questions in our thinking of the Colombian post-conflict.
