Caught in Crossfire

April 28, La Arandia military base, Southern Columbia. Romeo Langlois embarked a helicopter of ‘Jungla’ anti-narcotic commandos of the Colombian army. They were on a routine operation to dismantle laboratories processing coca leaves to make dough base, the basic material needed to make cocaine. Starting from his departure to when he surrendered to the farc Front 15, who will kidnap and hold him for 33 days, Romeo never stopped filming. Even when an AK47 bullet hit him in his forearm. Caught in the crossfire is the story of this battle on the front line: the death of Sergeant Cortez who was responsible for Romeo’s protection and eventually Romeo’s decision to surrender, shouting: ‘Do not shoot, I’m a civilian !’
