Manizales City (1925)

[letterboxd | imdb | youtube]

Director: Félix R. Restrepo

A haunting (and haunted feeling) silent actuality film originally meant to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the city of Manizales, Colombia in March 1925. Restrepo captured the various festivities for posterity, however, in July of that same year, Manizales experienced a horrible ravaging fire. The filmmakers returned to document the aftermath—businesses, homes, community and government buildings in ruin and the citizens trying to keep the city going. This footage was appended to the original documentary creating a tragic-but-hopeful coda to the initially celebratory film.

If you plan on checking the film out, here’s a content warning for bullfighting—shown between the 19-25 minute mark.
