Do you remember the war? Ask seven people and you’ll hear seven different stories. THE SHAPE OF NOW is a creative documentary on the challenge of writing history to solidify peace amidst post-conflict reconciliation. It portrays the lived experiences of different social spheres invested in peacekeeping, while scientists, academics and activists attempt to normalize war-torn Colombia, and a group of elderly mothers finds a direct way to approach their children’s possible killers, forging a necessary and genuine encounter in an effort to find closure.
