In 2015, Colombian documentary photographer Miguel Winograd traveled to the country's southwestern Putumayo region to investigate the killing of four peasants by Colombian army soldiers. Near a village of coca farmers, he saw two boys playing at war. "They were just kids playing around, but by the way they held the sticks you could tell they had grown up in a war zone," Winograd says. His photo of one of the boys was named a winner of the Latin American Fotografia 5 competition. It is part of a series the photographer calls "False Positives," a term used by the Colombian army to describe the killing of innocent civilians.
