Facing the Mirror #IWannaKnow

This transmedia magazine is the program of the Colombian Truth Commission telling the truth about60 years of armed conflict between the government of Colombia and the People’s Army FARC and the ways in which we can make peace. The host Santiago Alarcó isa well-known Colombian actor capable of connecting with young audiences, and combining different journalistic formats to address the pain of the past with the hope of a future of reconciliation. In an unconventional way, Santiago informs and challenges the public with his monologues and reflections. The objective is to combat indifference towards issues related to the Colombian armed conflict, but above all to generate empathy with the victims who are at the centre of this process. Each chapter is a profound journalistic exercise with a high therapeutic dose, hence the promise of the program: “a common sense therapy to heal a country with a heart attack”. The program paves the way for all Colombians to stand in front of a mirror, and recognise themselves in the faces and stories of the 9 million victims who have lived through the conflict in our country and who can finally write history today.
