Ariel Chiquito Marín was a coffee grower in Quinchía, Risaralda, until he joined the Óscar William Calvo Front of the EPL at 45 years old, “because he wanted change in this country.” At 57 years of age, he now wants to grow coffee again and recently graduated with 26 other ex-combatants in Toro, Valle del Cauca. This portrait seeks to reflect on the people who decided to lay down their weapons to bet, instead, on their education and personal potential.
