SYNOPSIS Hasta que se apague el sol unfolds its stories through contrasting coincidences: life born from death, and death from the pursuit of peace and justice. Luz Marina, Nobel Peace Prize nominee, and a mother seeking justice after the extrajudicial killing of her son, and Albeiro, an indigenous leader from Nasa who defends his territory against armed groups and multinational corporations. Two social leaders in the Colombian post-conflict scenario.
