Trapped between the Colombian army and a paramilitary group, a farming community risks a journey to remember the fallen.
In this 2019 story, Al Jazeera follows German Graciano, leader of Colombia's "Peace Community of San Jose de Apartado" as he leads his people to pay their respects to the more than 300 members who have been killed by the FARC, the Colombian army or right-wing paramilitary groups since the community's founding in 1997.
