MOVING TARGET
Creative documentary one-off, 30 min., 2016
Moving Target is a film about Ruby, a middle-aged human rights defender in Colombia. Ruby is a busy, but lonely lady, who lives with armed protection and spends most of her days in the back seat of a car, yet she stubbornly continues her work. Ruby has paid a high price for speaking up for the civilian victims in one of the longest-running conflicts in the world. Slowly Ruby’s story of persecution and loss unfolds, to create a compelling and personal portrait of a woman, whose life and destiny are inextricably connected to the armed conflict in Colombia. Moving Target aims to give an intimate look at the human consequences the Colombian conflict has had and continues to have on the civilians who live and die in it.
