The story

What Is Mute Fire About?

The premise of Mute Fire without spoilers.

On March 6, 1906, four men were executed following an attempt on the life of Colombian President Rafael Reyes. The execution was photographed, and those images served as inspiration for a fictionalized film depicting the failed coup. This event marked a turning point, deeply intertwining Colombian cinema with the nation’s turbulent history. Filmmakers have since explored themes of historical revisionism, propaganda, and the manipulation of images to foster unity within a divided country. The film also examines the troubling phenomenon of "Falsos positivos," young people killed and presented as guerrillas to falsely portray military victories.
