This Is How The Night Sounds: Radio Company of the Night explores the profound impact of radio on Colombia's rural communities. The documentary, led by journalist Nadia Orozco, delves into the history and cultural significance of Radio Sutatenza and Radio Furatena. These broadcasting endeavors, initiated by visionaries like José Joaquín Salcedo, have been instrumental in connecting isolated communities, offering education, entertainment, and emotional support.

Orozco's journey through Colombia's countryside underscores radio's role in cultural preservation and community building, making it a valuable resource in understanding societal dynamics.
