Stories of the land

El Manantial is an illegal neighborhood in Bogota, the Colombian capital. The children who live here daily assist to the only legal and safest place of their territory: El Manantial school. There they learn to seed different kinds of plants, vegetables and fruits on the ruins of the Corinto, a neighborhood which was founded by former guerrilla group of M19, and demolished years later by the state.
