I was fascinated. What a great way to use archival material, and what a nice window into the past. It's very sad that we don't have many images of what Colombia and Bogotá was like in the 20-30-40's, but this definitely fills that empty space in a great way. There are some stilted sequences, but that doesn't detract from what a great piece of work this is and how well done it is. The story is dramatic, exactly as I wanted it to be and it's gripping. The third act is definitely the best part.
