Wilson Ortiz
Wilson Ortiz is a Colombian expatriate who relocated to Munich after experiencing the violent upheaval caused by drug cartels in his hometown of Cali during the 1990s. His life was marked by the brutal realities of gang warfare, including a traumatic incident where a supermarket frequented by his family was bombed by rivals of Pablo Escobar. Ortiz's mother, deeply affected by the pervasive violence and chaos, sought a safer life for her family, ultimately leading them to Germany. At 47, Ortiz reflects on the stark contrast between his tumultuous past in Colombia and his current life in Munich, where he has been struck by the peace and quiet of his new surroundings.
