In Carlos Motta's award-winning Nefandus,
a pristine flowing river in the Colombian
Caribbean suppresses a tainted history of
"wild" beauty and colonialist religious and
sexual subjugation. An evocative essay on
pre-conquest homoeroticism, Nefandus
searches for traces of untold stories and
stigmatized historical accounts.
