Camilo Arroyo Arboleda has been a teacher of school, boatman, taxidermist, collector and seller of butterflies, dog psychologist, gold digger, driver, sea navigator, grinder, blacksmith, pharmacist. Even for a time, it became the white coconut of black children. Don Ca will be the portrait of a character who is not easy to label: he is not an exploiter settler, he is not a good Samaritan or an unsuitable hippie. He is a man who left the lines drawn and the roads sold as correct. His is a story that allows us to tackle the thorny issue of freedom. The freedom to make a path different from that proposed by modern societies; The freedom that continues to be denied to Afro-Colombian communities, not through whipping but through violence and poverty; The illusory freedom of a continent that is still locked in its process of true independence.
