An audacious saga set against the backdrop of the Colombian marijuana boom of the 1970s, Birds of Passage is a visually striking exploration of loyalty, greed, and the voracious nature of change.

Dates: Fri 24 - Fri 31 May, various times.

The origins of the Colombian drug trade, as seen through eyes of an indigenous Wayuu family that becomes involved in the booming business of selling marijuana to American youth in the 1970s. When greed, passion and honor collide, a fratricidal war breaks out and puts their lives, culture and ancestral traditions at stake.
