Colourful, expansive and rangy, disorientating without being incoherent,
this represents Sandino’s determined bid for auteur status.

In a role presenting remarkable physical challenges,
Sebastian Pii carries the film single-handedly and with commitment
SCREENDAILY

Packed with ambitious imagery that playfully wavers between the social drama and science fiction, “A Vanishing Fog” uses as a background the deeply beautiful landscape of the Páramo of Sumapaz, the biggest of its kind, whose soil – as most of Colombia’s ecologically rich lands – has been scorched by the country’s social conflict and environmental irresponsibility.
VARIETY

Sandino does an excellent job and trusts in Pii’s sensitivity and other qualities.
[...] his directorial work can be compared to that of Matteo Garrone and Marcello Fonte.
CINEUROPA

Writer-director Sandino has created a visionary work that beautifully keeps alive a disappearing world.”
FILM THREAT

“Surreal eco elegy with transcendental cinematography.”
Screen Anarchy

“A must-see.”
