A Matter of Land recounts the first year of application of Colombian's Land Restitution Act from the perspective of a community who decide to engage with the process. The film explores the tensions that arise when such communities come face to face with the complex institutions responsible for enforcing the law. The result of these tensions is a narrative worthy of Kafka, in which a doorway to justice is opened for the sole purpose of demonstrating that no one can pass through it.

Cerro Tacarcuna is the highest point in the Serranía del Darién, the mountain range that divides the border between Colombia and Panama. Located in the Chocoano Urabá, it is a biological corridor for the species that transit between Central and South America and concentrates all the wealth derived from the cultural crossing between its Afro and indigenous populations.
