Contents/Summary

Summary
At the heart of the humanitarian drama in Colombia, a journalist fights to denounce atrocity and to document events through his weekly television show Contravía— a show that is one of its kind amongst a plethora of soap operas and show-biz gossip. Hollman Morris’ exclusive eyewitness accounts have won him international recognition and prestigious prizes, as well as intimidation and death threats. Living in an increasingly hostile environment, Hollman Morris and his family contemplate leaving the country. “Unwanted Witness” draws the portrait of a complex person who, at the heart of a country torn apart by war, is full of convictions, motivations and fears but nevertheless devoted to the freedom of expression.
