In the early hours of 1956, seven army trucks carrying more than 40 tons of dynamite detonated in downtown Cali, Colombia, ripping open roughly 41 city blocks and leaving an estimated 1,300 to 4,000 dead. What followed was not just a blast, but a chain of disasters, fire, collapse, panic, and a rescue effort forced to dig through a city that was still breaking apart.
This documentary rebuilds the night step by step, from the convoy’s arrival and the fatal decision to park explosive cargo near sleeping neighborhoods, to the moment the city turned into a war zone. Along the way, we'll examine the competing explanations, mechanical failure, human error, or sabotage, and why the truth was so hard to prove when the evidence was buried in rubble.
