“THE LESS you know, the longer you live.” María lives in Zaragoza, a gold-mining town in the remote, mountainous region of Bajo Cauca, in the Colombian province of Antioquia. Gangsters control her life. Some people in town know the identities of the members of the armed groups that run the town, primarily the Gulf Clan, Colombia’s most powerful criminal organisation. María prefers not to. Ignorance is a shield against a reality that is hard to stomach.
