Four Australian films have been invited to screen at The Museum of Modern Art of Bogota (MAMBO) in Colombia, three of them produced at Sydney Film School.

Filmmaker Alvaro D Ruiz, a Sydney Film School graduate with Colombian citizenship, will present his work under a special program for up and coming Colombian filmmakers sponsored by MAMBO and the Colombian Ministry of Culture. Included in the program are 'Amanecer', 'Trapped', 'Memory' and '7:23'.

'Memory', 'Trapped' and '7:23' were all produced in 2007 while Alvaro was studying at the Sydney Film School. The first of these he directed as his Thesis film project, in the second he took the role of Producer and was signed on as DOP for the third, '7.23'.

Shot in Sydney in November 2007 the 14 minute long drama follows the story of a young South American immigrant who struggles to build a new life for his wife and children in Australia.
