Picture the scene: a short, empathetic Mexican woman dedicated to the art of massage has abruptly and unexpectedly entered into this superficial dynamics of extremely wealthy people gathering with a glass of exquisite cocktails. She remains unseen because she, herself, is not able to fit into this social ambiance in which she rarely believes and yet moves around to somehow make her point within such an elitist view of life. Her name is Beatriz and she is totally out of place.
Salma Hayek claims this role along with her astonishing performance as the Mexican Goddess, Frida Kahlo, to be her favorite performances of all her long career as an actress. Perhaps this has to do with Beatriz´connection to life itself and those who live in it. The actress has said to own a bunch of animals including dogs, cats, goats, birds and gold-fishes. But what is it that makes this role so special for the universal Mexican actress?
Beatriz (Salma Hayek) is about to participate in a revealing dinner with totally different people
It may be her simplicity, which combined with the hypocrisy of Californian elite resounds days after watching the movie. It could very well be her strong connection and empathy with the surroundings. The audience is able to feel her aching heart for human abusive behavior when it comes to his attitude towards the Earth, animals and other human beings. Perhaps what makes this specific role special is how unexpected the story turns out by the end of it, leaving each and everyone perplexed after witnessing what more than one would enjoy doing... Don´t worry, I am not going to make any spoiler.
I may be the reflective type rather than the fireworks lover. Perhaps this movie, which my friends claim to be weird-ish, heads towards an attempt of providing a Woody Allen or French-like gathering around a table, good wine and profound conversation about what life looks like and what´s our place in it. However, Beatriz at dinner seems to go beyond. It´s not just an inner (I am guilty) pleasure observing an apparently defenseless woman trying to defeat individuals oblivious to nowadays reality but also quite enjoyable to do so through a powerful woman that transcends her character.
It seems to me that class clashing is among the most interesting things in this social-political turmoil that cinema can provide. It must not be easy to take part in a diametrically opposed ambiance where your ideas are shuttered by people you don´t necessarily agree with, but at least Beatriz can say aloud she sticks to her principles and keeps being coherent with them. She deliberately tries to make her points over and over again unsuccessfully, embarrassing the guests continuously. The thing is that being out of place is a complete art.
Happy belated Father´s Day 2017 from ALFF ¡Cine Magnífico!
People will wonder why it is we are wishing you all a happy Father´s Day. The one and only reason is that we like to wish our beloved parents day after day how great they are! Cinema has shown over the years this strong bond that unites us with our fathers no matter where or when. If I may, this works also as a personal call to tell mine, who is far away in Spain, how much I love him. Now, who would be the first loving father that would come to your mind within the 7th Art? I guess there are as many tastes as colors and yet one of them could be... Bingo! Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire, perhaps the most representative example of a fighter, knowing the situation he and his family is confronting and never giving up on his children.
Mrs. Doubtfire having fun while cleaning
If you also have straight away several examples of movies where giving fathers work so hard to make their children´s life better, that could only mean two things: a father is irreplaceable and loving cinema makes you one of us!
Today is the World Environment Day and we want to celebrate it by making visible important values such as respect for nature, sustainable development and green attitude diffusion. Being part of the cinema sphere implies relating the latter with everything taking part of our society. Environmental awareness is no longer seen as a hippy concern but rather as a world-wide issue involving every human being no matter the background.
The world needs to be protected not owned and spreading the word about this is crucial for every living thing on planet Earth. Cinema has showed us over the years different sides of nature either from a catastrophic perspective, an educational one or else romanticized. Every case has helped however to increase environmental awareness in many different levels. The 7th Art is a great platform to serve major causes in a remarkably artistic way.
Here we offer a small selection of movies visibly related to the environment:
"Avatar" (2009) by James Cameron is one of the highest-grossing films ever, widely known by its fierce nature preservation message
"Finding Nemo" (2003) by Andrew Stanton and Lee Unkrich under Disney and Pixar alliance came to revolutionized animation movies and at the same time making us reflect on the importance of cooperating with one another and respecting the marine environment
"Before the flood" (2016) by Fisher Stevens under National Geographic and with the actor Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the most recent, devastating portraits of human unlimited consumerism and its consequences
Every kind of film may show very well the issue in question: fiction, animated and documentary. Each and one of the ones here have shaped somehow my view on nature and how I can deconstruct at least partially the unlimited consumerism mode I have been raised in. Let´s take a step further in protecting the environment and let´s make cinema a great part of the process.

By supporting ¡Cine Magnífico! financially you are not only strengthening individual creators from all over the Hispanic-American sphere and broadly speaking Art as a means to reach people with many different backgrounds; but also participating from a certainly special way of life. Being Hispanic-American is defined by a characteristic sense of humor, the power to keep moving ahead as well as a loving attitude towards family, friends and universal values. Creating the conditions so that these creators can tell the stories they want is a beautiful act of comradeship and ultimately a matter of awareness when it comes to diversity.
Donations may be done in any quantity, we appreciate every kind and truly thank our supporters. We understand crowdfunding campaigns are usually boosted by individuals and yet there must be those sponsors who want to contribute with bigger quantities so here there is the information in that regard:
The crowdfunding campaign is already on air, so there we go! Make sure you enjoy cinema as we certainly do.
Instituto Cervantes Albuquerque is very proud to launch the 5 th Edition of the Albuquerque Latino Film Festival ¡Cine Magnífico! in collaboration with the National Hispanic Cultural Center, Guild Cinema and the Latin American & Iberian Institute.

Alvaro Brechner's second feature length film, Mr. Kaplan, has received international acclaim as well as the honor of representing the nation of Uruguay as best foreign language film in several festivals throughout the world. Part of the international appeal of Mr Kaplan, aside from its mixture of the profound and the humorous, the tragic and the comic, this film centers on a subject familiar to all, especially in today's world: memory.
As the world has seemed since the second World War to be engaged in an unending war that may switch setting from decade to decade, but always focuses around the same issues of fear and insurgency, it has become increasingly difficult for national communities to construct collective historical memories. Because information and narratives of political conflict saturate our every glance at a television or cell phone screen, notions of exactly what is happening and why become increasingly difficult to grasp as a collective whole. One community that has been struggling with this process since the second World War are the world's Jews, many of whom are spread out from places like Israel, to New York to Uruguay and Argentina. Capturing ninety year old Nazis and extraditing them to Israel has been a common motif for south American Jews for several decades now, and the aged character Jacobo Kaplan seems to represent the tiredness of this common story: despite how important these moments are for members of the Jewish community and anyone else who feels the need to continue the process of international justice, Jacobo Kaplan's hunt for a suspected ex-Nazi in Uruguay takes on an almost comic, albeit tragic, nature.
Jacobo Kaplan and his younger friend, Contreras, become a duo of amateur detectives that grasp for meaning in their own lives by investigating and tracking an elderly man they suspect of past involvement in heinous crimes. But does anyone actually still care? And why are they actually chasing him? For what end? We find through these two characters partial answers to these questions, no matter how dry, hilarious or painful they may be.
Mr Kaplan is our Showcase Film on Saturday Night, 8 PM - September 19th at the Bank of America Theater. See you all there!! This is a must-see for all!
Climas follows the separate stories of three Peruvian women. Through these three women, three different stages of a woman{s life in Peru are told through the main characters, as well as three different socioeconomic classes and three different regions of Peru. The young woman is Eva, who is experiencing her first sexual encounters and lives in the "selva" region. The woman entering the phase of maternity is Victoria, who is from the upper class in the capital city of Lima and has a terrible secret of her own. Finally we have the story of Zoraida, an elderly woman from the Andean region who receives an unexpected visit from her son.
Climas is directed by Enrica Perez, a Lima native who has made a great impact in the Peruvian film scene with this film, her feature length debut. Perez has explained in interviews that one of the driving inspirations and underlying themes of this film, which she has worked on for the past eight years, was the idea that living in different climates have an amazing impact on the way we live and experience our lives and the lives of others. We often talk about economic and social divisions, but we don't talk as much about climate divisions. For this reason, the climate and natural environment of each of the three main geographical settings – the selva, the city and the Andes – plays a large role in the narrative of each of the three characters who live there.
Join us for this expansive and evocative drama, three stories in one nation. Our Showcase Film screening is on Saturday evening, September 19th at 6PM @ The Bank of America Theater. See you all there!
3 Bellezas
Saturday, 19 de Septiembre
National Hispanic Cultural Center, Bank of America Theater
Director: Carlos Caridad Montero
Carlos Caridad Montero's highly acclaimed feature film debut 3 bellezas ("3 Beauties") is here at CineMagnifico. 3 Bellezas is a black comedy about two Venezuelan national obsessions: beauty queens and plastic surgery. Although this may seem to solidify an already dangerous stereotype about Venezuelan society, director Caridad Montero has a skill for expressing what is known to be real, everyday life experience in his country, while also leveling a social critique through his film.
Perla, played by Diana Peñalver, is a former beauty queen who dreams, or more than dreams, about seeing her young daughter, Carolina, become a beauty queen like her mother. And Perla will do almost anything to see this happen, including damaging her relationship with her own family. With help from her sister, Estefania, Perla forces her daughters to endlessly practice the catwalk, teaches them how to diet and how to wear swimsuits and gowns the proper way. Through all of this hilarious dark humor, Caridad Montero manages to expose a cultural obsession with beauty familiar to most Venezuelans and to those living in many other nations, including our own. Certainly, this theme is not totally foreign to United States society, and calls to mind the iconic stereotype of beauty and culture in southern California.
Through his first several short films that made a splash in international festival circuits, Caridad Montero has gained the attention of the public and academic critics alike, a gap between styles of spectatorship that is often difficult to bridge. This speaks to the Maracaibo native's ability and unique capacity to express in realistic terms the everyday life in popular Venezuelan society while simultaneously satisfying the academic desire to see a dynamic critique of this very same society that is being portrayed. Caridad Montero, before even delving into feature length films, has seemed to quickly master the art of making films that carry weighty social critiques, but only to the viewers that want to see them – for anyone else, it could seem like a movie that simply 'expresses the reality' of a life in Venezuela. In this way, Caridad Montero, with the release of his first feature length film, has quickly become one of Venezuela's most important directors.
Perhaps one of the most important notes about Caridad Montero's young career is that he studied film at the film school in San Antonio de los Baños, Cuba. It is evident in his work that when he returned to his home country of Venezuela after graduation, he not only was returning with a new tool belt of film technique, but also a new perspective on his own nation after having experienced life on the Caribbean island to the north.
La Isla Mínima (The Marshland)
Directed by Alberto Rodríguez
Showing at the Guild Cinema on Saturday, September 19th at 5PM
La isla mínima won thirteen prizes at Spain's Goya Awards, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Cinematography, Best Score and Best Screenplay.
Director Alberto Rodríguez takes us to the territory of his home, where he was born and raised: Andalucía – the deep south of Spain. He takes us there for a mysterious thriller that takes place in 1980. Two detectives with different opinions on how to treat their work unite to investigate the murder of two young women in town. The texture of the film along with the small town mystery and the southern landscape is reminiscent of the first season of True Detective. The artistic aesthetic of the frames were inspired by the photography of Atín Aya. Not only does this film thrill, but it connects to history and politics.
One of the detectives is older than the other, and his style is stuck in the days of Franco's brutal regime, which is now supposedly finished, although so many of its remnants hang linger above the rural roadways fo the town like gossip and dust in the heat. One of the directors stated linkages with the Franco regime is the state's poor treatment of women and misogyny that prevailed during the Franco era, but is by no means gone from the culture. As the two detectives, from two distinct epochs of Spain's recent history, attack the truth of the crimes against these young women, truths about the nature of the community also come to light.
One of Spain's most celebrated films in recent memory and one that has had a strong reception here in the US, La isla minima is not a film you should miss. Showing at the Guild Cinema on Saturday, September 19th at 5PM. See you all there!!
Saturday, September 19
National Hispanic Cultural Center, Bank of America Theatre
Country: Spain
Director: Alex de la Iglesia
Release Date: 2015
Language: Spanish with English subtitles
The film dramatizes Lionel Messi's early life, combined with documentary footage and interviews with some of the most famous men in recent soccer history. Included in this group are Dutch legend (and former Barcelona player and manager) Johan Cruyff and World Cup-winning Argentine manager César Luis Menotti. Also featured are some of Messi's current teammates, including Andrés Iniesta and Gerard Piqué. Beautiful personal revelations are not omitted; whenever Messi scores and stares skyward with his fingers pointing to the heavens, it is his grandmother to whom he is beckoning—she is still the one to whom he dedicates all his goals.
Alex de la Iglesia has directed this feature length documentary about one of the world's most recognizable names, and most of the most undeniably dominant players in all of modern sports: Lionel Messi. The film, which documents Messi's childhood and coming of age, displays the struggles that Messi encountered along the way to be being recognized as a prodigy and an absolute phenomenon. One of the largest obstacles Messi encountered was uncontrollable: his body size. Messi was incredibly short and undersized and because of this he was overlooked by scouts and recruiters. It took the foresight of specific mentors and coaches to see the gem that lay hidden in the rough of Messi's unorthodox body type. One of the main reasons Alex de la Iglesia was drawn to this project was the message that it holds not just for children, but anyone who is pursuing a dream. Along the way, your disadvantages and weaknesses will be highlighted and revealed, and you may even be told by those closest to you that this dream is not for you. Especially in today's highly competitive world, this message holds resonance for almost anyone, particularly as they see the unimaginable, colossal place that Messi has gained in international football. And imagine, as a child he was told he was too small to play… he who became the world's best footballer.
Alex de la Iglesia directed the popular Hollywood movie The Oxford Murders, starring Elijah Wood in 2008. Messi was nominated for an award at the Venice Film Festival. Messi was produced with support and partnership from FIFA, F.C. Barcelona and Messi's family.
Screening Saturday, September 19th @ 2PM in the Bank of America Theater. See you all there!!!
Genre: Drama
Director: Ernesto Daranas
Language: Spanish with English subtitles
Q&A with director Ernesto Daranas after the film
"The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts" (C.S. LEWIS)
Chala is eleven years old and lives alone with his drug addict mother. He trains fighting dogs for a living, and this world of violence sometimes surfaces when he is at school. Carmela is his sixth grade teacher, for whom the boy feels affection and respect. One day she becomes ill and must give up the school for several months. The relationship between the veteran teacher and the boy grows stronger, but this mutual commitment may put in jeopardy their ability to continue at the school.
Written and directed by Ernesto Daranas, a Cuban director only slightly known before this film for his previous feature-length work, "Fallen Gods", Conducta is in many ways an homage to the teacher as a pillar of society. In "Fallen Gods", Daranas dealt with stories of prostitution in Havana, including the history the 'oldest profession' in the streets of Cuba's capital city. It seems Daranas has a recurring interest in focusing on and paying tribute to professions that go overlooked or underrepresented by society, or perhaps by other filmmakers. Daranas is also a member of the generation of Cuban filmmakers who are experiencing a vast opening of censorship. Similar to Spanish directors after Franco, Cuban filmmakers are able to produce works today that would not have been possible even several years ago.
Although Conducta deals with the school as an institution of government, Daranas does not leave us inside the classroom. In fact, much of the film takes place outside of the school building, on the streets, and in the homes of students and teachers. This creates a sensation of the school as an educational institution which is actually not as rigid as the walls of the building – the process of education goes well beyond the classroom, into the streets and the home. This also places the character of the teacher as a mediator between the government and the student. In this case, the teacher, Carmela (played by Alina Rodríguez) intervenes in the government's attempt to control the lives of her students, in particular a student named Chala (played by Armando Valdes Freire).
Conducta has won prizes at The Havana Film Festival, The Goya Awards, Malaga Film Festival and many others. It is regarded as one of the best film's to come out of Cuba in 2014. Conducta will play at the Bank of America Theater in the National Hispanic Cultural Center on Friday, September 18th. This is our Opening Night Film, and director/writer Ernesto Daranas will be in attendance, including a question & answer session following the film. This is an amazing film and an amazing opportunity for the community to meet and speak with one of Cuba's dynamic young filmmakers. See you all there!!
Guatemala: El espíritu de la memoría (2014): directed by Natalia Díaz
Friday, September 18th
UNM College of Fine Arts, Room 2018
Guatemala, el Espíritu de la Memoria
Country: Spain/Guatemala
Genre: Documentary
Runtime: 65 min.
Director: Natalia Díaz
Release Date: 2014
Language: Spanish with English subtitles
Guatemala: El espíritu de la memoría ("The Spirit of Memory"), directed by Natalia Díaz, is a documentary that follows two religious leaders as they accompany indigenous communities on the road to resistance, redemption and the rebuilding of collective memory. These two longtime community activists, Catholic priest Rafael Delgado and Lutheran minister José Pilar Cabrera, serve as a guide for us as viewers as we delve into the details of the tremendously complex and persisting issues that face the indigenous communities of today's Guatemala, issues that include international corporate interest in the exploitation of the nation's rich resources such as gold and water. Much of these resources reside in the land of indigenous communities, whose land rights have been threatened by outside business interests for centuries, but especially during the modern age.
For 36 years, Guatemala was embroiled in a civil war (1960-1996) between the national government and guerilla forces. This conflict resulted in the genocide of hundreds of thousands of indigenous Guatemalans. Often people would simply "disappear" and massacres went unpunished. The 1996 peace accord which officially ended the war on paper did not change everything on a day to day basis; general impunity regarding systematic violence, terror and oppression continues to this day.
In addition to getting the rare chance to learn from the inside about the work of activists such as Delgado and Pilar, director Natalia Díaz also brings us in this documentary the testimony of Amelia Martínez, a 76-year old human rights activist from Spain. In 1996, Amelia began to collaborate with a Guatemala-based human rights project called REMHI (Recuperation of Historical Memory), a project that was promoted in large part by the Office of the Archbishop of Guatemala. In 1998, the major religious and social leader behind this project, Bishop Juan Gerardi, was assassinated by a group of attackers linked to the National Military of Guatemala.
This assassination seriously shook the nation, especially those indigenous communities who had only recently started to heal and rest hope in such projects, and it served as a reminder that, despite the peace accords, this was no time to feel safe in resistance or activism. In a showing of solidarity, 76-year-old Amelia traveled to Guatemala in 2013 for a memorial service held in honor of Bishop Gerardi, and the director Natalia Díaz followed along with her camera. That was the beginning of the making of this film. Through Amelia and her network of tireless and fearless activists, we meet Father Delgado, Pastor Pilar, as well as many members of the communities with whom they work alongside to rebuild elements of collective and historical memory.
On the film's official website, director Natalia Díaz explains that there was a common experience amongst all of the activists she met who had spent time working alongside indigenous communities in Guatemala, an experience which served as a major foundation for the ideas behind this documentary. Everyone who has worked with and struggled with the construction of historical memory in Guatemala in the post-Civil War era has been awestricken by the brutal juxtaposition between the beautiful country advertised as a tourist destination and the brutally violent and genocidal regimes that have torn apart so much of the nation in recent history. She mentions that often Guatemala is for foreigners made to seem a place "of eternal spring", with mountains and lakes and always the picturesque indigenous peoples with their handicrafts and idealized way of life. However, this depiction of Guatemala could not be farther from the truth, and most terrifying is the prospect of us foreigners continuing into our "eternal spring" without truly understanding what has happened in Guatemala and what the stakes are for the people there today.
This is perhaps even more, or at least equally as terrifying as the prospect of Guatemalans themselves not being able to construct enduring collective memories of their own history, due to violence, intimidation, fear, terror, poverty, or whatever else. The director goes on to say: "We have asked ourselves: What can we do from the comfort of our own homes and our safe, stable lives to at least chip away at this enormous wall of unknown information and unheard stories?" The director concedes that there is no one easy answer, but, perhaps, being able to view a documentary is a start. "Our tools are humble, we are far apart, and the media does not talk about us much. But we know that an image is what makes us believe something; we know that a voice and a word can stay recorded in our minds forever. And we hope that this effort can at least plant a small seed."
We look forward to seeing you all there for the screening of this incredible and moving piece of documentary film from Guatemala. Thank you all and see you there!!
¡CineMagnífico! Albuquerque's Latino Film Festival is exactly one month away from the opening night of its 3rd annual festival. We are extremely excited this year, with a fantastic lineup of films, new local artists to showcase, and fabulous events for the family and the entire community. Those who have attended in past years will remember the beautiful grounds of the National Hispanic Cultural Center and the gorgeous Bank of America Theater. Join us for a beautiful evening on Friday, September 18th for our opening night presentation, the New Mexico debut of Conducta, an exquisite drama that the Havana Times has recently called a serene and sincere portrait of life in the Cuban capital. This is the second feature film for director Ernesto Daranas Serrano, a highly acclaimed and dynamic, young artist in the Cuban film world. Director Daranas will be attending ¡CineMagnífico! For the state debut of his film on Friday the 18th.
We have a full day Saturday, September 19th, with multiple films showing at two theaters: the Bank of America Theater at the NHCC and the Guild Cinema in Nob Hill! At the Bank of America Theater we will be showing three films during the morning and afternoon, including Messi, a film from Spain about the iconic Argentinian star-player for Barcelona's legendary football club, and a documentary for the family, Abrazos, which will be followed by a Q&A session with the director. In addition, we will be showing three films at the Guild Cinema in Nob Hill, including the incredible, must-see Spanish blockbuster La isla minima about a mysterious murder in the 1980s in the Spanish 'deep south'. La isla minima plays at 5PM at the Guild Cinema. At the Bank of America Theater, our Saturday Night Showcase Film, Mr. Kaplan, is a taught comedy-drama from Uruguay about an aging European immigrant, Jacob Kaplan, who thinks he's discovered a former Nazi in hiding. Mr. Kaplan will play at 8PM in the Bank of America Theater. Back at the Guild Cinema on Saturday night at 9PM, we will also hold a screening of short films at the Guild Cinema.
On Sunday, September 20th, we will show five fantastic films at the Bank of America Theater in the NHCC. Three films from Mexico, Llevate mis amores, Amor de mis amores and Buen Día, Ramon will play at 11 AM, 4PM and 6PM respectively. Buen Dia, Ramon, is a prize-winning box office hit from Mexico that tells the heartwarming story of a young man from a small Mexican town who immigrates to Germany to find work and support his family, but becomes stranded without shelter or employment. It is a strange relationship with a senior citizen named Ruth that changes everything, and transcends the often problematic issues of race, prejudice and international borders. The Argentinian film Mariposa will play at 2PM. Mariposa is a fascinating philosophical drama in which the flapping of a butterfly's wings separates two parallel realties for Romina's life, one in which she becomes friends with and falls in love with a boy named German, and another in which she is separated from her biological parents and adopted as German's sister. Accompanying our Closing Night Film at 8PM, De pez en Cuando, we will have our annual Closing Night Gala at the NHCC, which will be a lovely evening that I hope you all will join. De pez en cuando is a film from the Dominican Republic and, almost in a Garcia-Marquez-esque streak of magical realism, tells the story of a frustrated young writer whose futile and halfhearted suicide attempt is interrupted by an unexpected friend.
We look forward to seeing you all this year. For such an incredible cast of films, events and guest directors, we have to thank all of those who make this incredible event possible for our community here in Albuquerque. First, we have to thank the main organizers, the Bernalillo County Office of Economic Development, The National Hispanic Cultural Center, Instituto Cervantes and The University of New Mexico's Latin American and Iberian Institute. This year, we would like to extend special gratitude for all of the key support we have received from our major supporters here in our greater-Albuquerque community. We would like to thank all of the fantastic community organizations that support ¡CineMagnífico!

We look forward to seeing everyone at this year's festival, the 3rd annual ¡CineMagnífico! Latino Film Festival of Albuquerque, which is quickly becoming one of our communities most exciting, dynamic and important cultural events.

¡CineMagnífico! Albuquerque's Latino Film Festival – September 18th, 19th and 20th, 2015
Diamantes Negros, a docudrama that follows two aspiring amateur footballers from Mali as they pursue their dreams to be famous players in the professional European football leagues. Amadou and Moussa, motivated by their desire to make their fathers proud and buy their mothers a brand new house that lacks nothing, realize that their opportunity has arrived when two professional agents offer them a contact to travel to Spain and play for a football club. Once they arrive, however, they find themselves in a nightmarishly unknown world, where people aren't always as friendly as one might hope, particularly in the cutthroat, corrupted and greedy world of professional football.
Director Miguel Alcantud, a native of Cartagena, Spain, has a penchant for documenting competitive worlds that don't always rise to the surface for all spectators. Alcantud's 2007 Anastezsi documented the brutally competitive underground of Europe's best youth violinists. Here again, we are treated to an eye-opening exposé of youth, talent and the pursuit of dreams in Europe's most elite echelons of entertainment. The exploitation of youth, particularly the manipulation of their most precious dreams, is at the heart of Diamantes Negros.
Eventually, when Amadou and Moussa's footballing futures become less promising, we follow them to the streets as they pursue life's other treasures: happiness, friendship and travel. All the while, Alcantud maintains a realistic eye, and does not reach for Hollywood happiness; rather, he lets his camera show the story, the good and the bad, the victories and defeats. Diamantes Negros is like taking a big drink of pure life, and everything that comes with it.
Spanish/Portuguese production, a docudrama directed by Miguel Alcantud, traces the journey of two young boys from Mali across Spain, Portugal, and northern Europe-an odyssey of deceptions and abuses-after they are persuaded to pursue their dream of becoming professional soccer players. Revealing the sordid underground of Europe's most popular sport, the film received the Audience Award (Premio del Público) at the Málaga Spanish Film Festival. 98 minutes; not rated.

SANTIAGO, Dec 1 (Reuters) - The Chilean unit of Brazilian bank Grupo BTG Pactual said on Tuesday that it was operating normally and that its brokerage business was "robust", after the chief executive at its parent was jailed as part of a sweeping corruption probe.
Andre Esteves, the controlling shareholder of BTG Pactual , quit as the bank's head in recent days as prosecutors prepared to file charges relating to a graft probe at state oil firm Petrobras, sending BTG shares down sharply.
"The situation at the brokerage is robust," said Maximiliano Vial, president of BTG's Chilean brokerage unit, in a statement.
"The brokerage is functioning with normality, as is the bank. We continue operating with high volumes."

3. Homemade Trail Mix - Tailor it to your families likings and allergy needs. Our favorite items are craisins, raisins, cheerios, peanuts, cheese crackers, mini vanilla wafers, and even beef jerky pieces.
4. "Candied" Grapes - This is just like candy!!! But it is a fruit!! Wash your grapes and shake off water. Then add about 2 cups of grapes into a ziploc bag and shake with 1/8-1/4 cup sugar. Dump the coated grapes onto a shallow baking pan that will fit in your freezer. Let them air dry for a few mintues to allow the sugar to stick better. Than freeze for about 2 hours. And enjoy!
|Washed, coated in sugar, and ready to freeze.
Just an FYI - My kids asked me to leave off the sugar next time. they were too sweet.
So maybe just wash and freeze them!!
What are some fun cool treats that you and your children enjoy during the summer? Do you have any easy fun recipes that you would love to share with me? Leave me a comment so that we can all share ideas.
|Summer snacks are always more fun with friends!!

OSX 10.3: Problems making local wp viewable over www
I'm trying to make my unfinished weblog visible and workable to others using my own computer as host. This is something I want to do as a test so that I can get feedback on a few bugs I'm trying to remove.
The weblog is in it's own folder, not in root. As far as I am able to tell, there are two locations I can put the site in:
In the Sharing system pref pane both of these have an adress which makes them viewable by others. (View this computer's website at…) The distinction between these two adresses is just that the latter has the added ~Myusername at the end of it.
My first problem is that once people have this adress, they can also access any other site I may have on my local server simply by going up one level. I don't understand this. Permission for the WebServer/Documents folder is set to root and should be accessed only by admin. And still people can see all content of the folder. Is this normal? I'm a little reluctant to open all projects I may be working on to all viewers.
My second problem is that when a friend of mine uses this adress to try my weblog, he can see it but not comment on stories because connection to localhost was refused. This I suppose makes sense since he is accessing the database and not the php files at that point. But is there any way of letting an outside user fully access my local wp?
Any input greatly appreciated!

(Photo: Business Wire)"Creating this kit is one of the greatest honors we have at NIKE," said Trevor Edwards, President of the NIKE Brand. "It's more than just a player's uniform, it represents the history of Brasilian football, the five stars, the romance of the game, and the hopes of a nation." The kit aids performance by regulating player body temperature and keeping players cool. NIKE Dri-FIT technology pulls moisture away from the skin to the outside of the garment where it evaporates more quickly, and laser-cut holes and engineered mesh in key areas where heat is generated allow for increased breathability and airflow. In line with NIKE's commitment to superior performance with lower environmental impact, the shirt, shorts and - for the first time in a national team kit - the socks, all feature fabric made from recycled plastic bottles. Each kit is made using an average of 18 recycled plastic bottles. Since 2010, NIKE has diverted almost 2 billion bottles from landfills, enough to cover over 2800 full-sized football pitches. "Incorporating environmental sustainability is a key part of the design and development process for us," said Martin Lotti, Creative Director of NIKE Football. "Our aim is to create a kit that performs for players and is good to the planet." Designers utilized three-dimensional body scans of the entire Brasilian National Team to create an updated fit, improving comfort and allowing the body to move naturally within the kit.

Va. Retailers Warned of Gouging
Consumers bracing for Hurricane Isabel's impact, investigators keeping an eye on grocery and fuel prices.
RICHMOND, Va. -- The Virginia Petroleum Convenience and Grocery Association (VPVGA) and the Virginia Attorney General Jerry Kilgore warned retailers against price gouging as the East braces for Hurricane Isabel.
After Hurricane Floyd in 1999, several attempts to pass bills that discouraged price gouging failed. Virginia merchants can raise prices of goods that suddenly are in high demand.
State law allows the governor to set prices during a disaster, but that would only be done in extreme situations, such as war, the Hampton Roads (Va.) Daily Press reported.
VPCGA warned its members -- independently owned convenience stores throughout the state -- that their prices will be under scrutiny as consumers and media watch for gouging. Knowing the governor could regulate prices should prevent merchants from gouging the public, said Mike O'Connor, the group's president.
"We would strongly urge the governor if he was concerned, or if there was evidence that anyone had taken advantage, that he use that power," he said.
Consumer advocates in the office had received few complaints yesterday as customers braced for the storm. Farm Fresh, Lowe's and Home Depot are among retailers that say they lock down prices when disaster looms so consumers won't think they're being taken advantage of, the report said.
Any Farm Fresh employee caught inflating prices during an emergency will be fired on the spot, said Ron Dennis, president of the Norfolk-based chain, with 36-stores in Hampton Roads.
"We just don't want to try to make a quick buck in an emergency," Dennis said. "It's a matter of trust you build with the customer."

Stripe Form: Certain payments on one of my forms are not going throughAsked by PCRC on October 31, 2016 at 01:22 PM
Certain payments on one of my forms are not going through - please can you help me figure out why?
On our Snowdon & Welsh 3 Peaks form, people have an option to pay for one or the other event. Some payments have been going through but there have been a few where all the details have been given but they are charged £0.00 and i cant seem to find why.
JotForm Support
I have tried to reproduce the issue with a cloned version of your form, but everything worked fine on my end. I have sent a ticket to our developers to see if we can investigate this further.
Do you get any records in Customers and Payments within your Stripe account for those 0.00 records?
JotForm Support
The payments that went 'missing' weren't really processed. According to our logs, these customers didn't select a quantity for their selected product. Since your product's quantity defaults to zero, the amount totaled to zero.
To rectify this problem, we have fixed in-form validation to check the quantity as well.
You can expect that this problem will not recur from here on out.

Pope Francis Strikes Compassionate Note on Divorce
What is the Document?
The 60,000-word missive, known as an apostolic exhortation, is the pope's response to a sweeping, two-year debate among bishops convened by the pontiff to decide whether the church should change its approach regarding numerous family issues. The discussions ended up focusing on whether the church should soften its ban on granting Communion to Catholics who have divorced and remarried without obtaining an annulment of their first marriage.
Why is This Debate so Important?
The church has debated for decades how it should accommodate the modern world, with sexual ethics among the most delicate subjects. Liberals argue that questions such as whether remarried divorcees can receive Communion should be at the discretion of individual clergy. Many liberal priests do grant divorcees Communion. Conservatives instead stress that there should be a strict reading of church rules
What did Pope Francis Decide?
The pontiff hasn't changed the rule on Communion and divorcees, but he implied that certain circumstances-–for instance, when a remarried Catholic is in a stable new relationship that includes children–call for leniency. The pope's judgment could effectively encourage case-by-case decisions on whether a priest grants Communion to divorced and remarried Catholics.
Is This the Final Word?
No. The debate over divorcees has been so acrimonious that it has generated talk of a schism, and this document isn't likely to put that to rest. Conservatives will be disappointed that the pope failed to reaffirm the traditional teachings, but will argue that the core principle stands and that nothing has essentially changed. Some liberals will be disappointed that the pope didn't formally lift the ban on Communion for divorcees.
Can a Future Pope Change the Current Position?
Yes. Pope Francis' language was ambiguous enough that a future pope could still reassert a stricter approach without contradicting this document.

Auto enthusiasts appreciate the a quality brand built into each Dodge, and understand that only the highest quality repair B350 parts will suffice when repairs are needed. The vehicle in your driveway symbolizes the best in class compared to all the other cars, trucks, and SUVs these days. Anyone who owns a Dodge knows that when it comes to repairing their vehicle only the absolute best replacement parts will do. Your Dodge dealership isn't the only place to locate genuine or original equipment quality repair parts to fix your B350.
Inside every engine, there's a whole lot of shaking going on. The harmonic balancer attached to your crankshaft solves this problem. The harmonic balancer is a huge, vibration-dampening pulley that connects your drive belts to the accessories in your Dodge B350 engine. Since these accessories require the centrifugal force of the crankshaft to power them but would be severely harmed if the vibrations were transferred through the belts, the rubber membrane inside your Dodge B350 harmonic balancer absorbs the vibration so the crank pulley operates smoothly.
Don't let a Harmonic Balancer repair bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by buying anything but the highest quality replacement parts. Ordering new Dodge parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement B350 parts on the internet. When your Dodge needs a top quality replacement Harmonic Balancer, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. All the Dodge B350 Harmonic Balancer parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, 1985, 1984, 1983, 1982, 1981.

"Worse than "inadequate""
About: King George Hospital King George Hospital Ilford IG3 8YB
Posted by abetterNHS
7 Hour wait at A&E department on evening of 9th May 2015. Department looked like a war zone.
Queues of patients outside door waiting to be booked in. Parents with small children with acute symptoms waiting for two hours before being seen by GP.
Attended with patient with acute back pain, unable to walk, refused assistance into A&E. Spent 7 hours in agony waiting to be seen, had to urinate in bottle in view some members of public To add insult to injury Care Quality Commission report 2015 on wall stating emergency care "inadequate".!
Response from King George Hospital 13 months ago
Thank you for taking the time to make us aware of your experience, I was very sorry to read of the long wait you encountered in our Emergency Department. Unfortunately, we are not able to determine how many patients are going to access our Emergency Department on any one day and patients that do access the service are triaged based on their clinical need, which can sometimes result in a patient waiting longer than originally anticipated. I would also like to apologise for the lack of assistance you received. If you would like to discuss your concerns further, you can contact our Patient Advice and Liaison Service, who will be happy to assist you in any way they can to try to resolve your concerns. The PALS team can be contacted on 01708 435 454, or by email email@example.com.
Yours Sincerely

Taylor Swift gushes over Calvin Harris at iHeartRadio Awards
Taylor Swift paid a gushing tribute to boyfriend Calvin Harris at the iHeartRadio Music Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday (03.04.16).
The 26-year-old singer singled out DJ Calvin - whose real name is Adam Wiles - as she was presented with the gong for Best Tour by Justin Timberlake at the Forum in Inglewood.
Taylor said: "For the first time I had the most amazing person to come home to when the spotlight went out and when the crowds were all gone. So I want to thank my boyfriend Adam for that and I love you guys so much."
The 'Bad Blood' hitmaker also picked up the award for Best Album, which was presented by her close pal and Triple Threat winner Selena Gomez, who introduced her as "My Girl T-Swizzy Taylor Swift".
Accepting the award, Taylor paid tribute to her family, saying: "I know my mom, dad and brother are watching and my most vivid memory of growing up is my mom and dad telling me that I was different and unique and special and I could do whatever I wanted in my life.
"So parents tell your kids every day that they are special, they are unique, they could do whatever they want with their lives. Thank you for having me."
She picked up gongs for Female Artist of the Year and was chosen for the new prize of Most Meme-able Moment for the "Crazy Girl with Running Mascara" from her 'Blank Space' music video.
Taylor was also overjoyed when Calvin was awarded the prize for Dance Artist of the Year and gave him a huge hug in front of the crowd.
Other winners included Justin Bieber with three awards and Drake and Twenty One Pilots, who each were awarded two prizes.
And Zayn Malik took to the stage to perform 'Like I Would', after his debut album 'Mind of Mine' topped the Billboard charts.

A career lifeguard, Raymond Spence was initially known as Ray Ostergard when he published two novels in the Sixties. Born at Staines, Middlesex, England on July 26, 1937, he was raised at Stonehouse, Scotland and "was shipped with my younger brother and a good deal of hope to Canada" upon his mother's re-marriage. He arrived in B.C. in 1945, lived in Port Moody and Quesnel, and attended UBC for four years. He worked briefly at CBC before beginning to work as a lifeguard in the summer of 1957. At UBC he took writing courses, earned a degree in philosophy and gained a teaching certificate. While working as a lifeguard, Raymond Spence also wrote songs and film scripts, and played in bands. His comic novel Vernal Equinox (1964) celebrates the first day of spring in Vancouver; it was followed by Nothing Black But A Cadillac (Putnam's), now offered by Spence as material for a film. "Meet Jody Sinclair, black, handsome, virile and willing. But he's only half black and only half willing, according to the ladies he meets during a sex crazed, all nighter in and around the Bay area. But that's to be expected since those ladies are coming at him faster than a phalanx of pugilistic Bruce Lees. He does his best to find love and escape employment." In the 1980s he was living in Kitsilano. "Life is short and art is long," he said, quoting Tolstoy to the Vancouver Courier.

How can I make a boy cry?
Girls, How to make a boy cry?
What Girls Said 14
Replace his contact lenses with equivalently sized slices of white onion... while telling him about all the wild things you'd *never* do with a quality guy like him.00|00|0
Lol a bit of a poet there <3
That's the spirit00|00|0
I drink spirit.
Cast a spell on him.00|00|0
My luck, it would back fire and I would end up casting a demon on myself 😂
I'm thinking about destroying his xbox or ps4. Only works if he is a hardcore gamer though.00|00|0
Don't think so, but not exactly sure🤔
Kick him where it hurts lol, no jk don't do that.00|00|0
Haha, I wouldn't do that. Not unless it's in self defense
Mine sometimes cries when I have panic attacks bc he can't do anything (as I don't like been touched and prefer to be alone).00|02|0
Why would you want to do that?00|00|0
Long story. Just don't know how to do it none violently.
Why would you make him cry?11|00|0
Buy some steel toed boots and kick him in the balls, repeatedly. He's a boy so he deserves it. Maybe THAT will get him to check his privilege.
God damn, lol. I just want to make him cry from emotions, not turn him into a girl. Lol.
Hurt his pride (through the majority of time he's most likely to yell than anything)00|00|0
That would probably be more of an embarrassment
- Show AllShow Less
Make him so mad he hits me, then sue him, and watch him cry in court. Ha... nah, jk. Too far😝
No it's more made him mad, he hit you, you get mad at him back, he's guilty and cry XD
By ignoring him. Harsh words just make a person angry, but silence breaks their heart. No one likes being ignored and not knowing why.00|00|0
Still a douche...

More women opting for Cosmetic Surgery âto achieve the perfect profileâ
31 October 2014
When taking a photo, many of us are often keen to show off our best side â but for those worried about not achieving the perfect angle, thereâs finally a solution: Cosmetic Surgery.
A London-based clinic has noted a high demand for procedures that help to enhance a patientâs side profile, especially for treatments such as Microcannular Liposuction (otherwise known as Microlipo) â whereby pockets of unwanted fat are removed with the targeted areas (commonly under the neck and chin as well as behind the thighs) then sculpted to complement the bodyâs new shape.
A spokesperson from the clinic explained: âProcedures such as Microlipo and fat transfer are certainly growing in popularity.
âThere are many reasons for this, including the fact that these procedures enable patients to make subtle, yet positive improvements to areas of their body, which perhaps might not even be obvious when we look directly at the person from the front.â
What are your thoughts on getting the perfect profile with Cosmetic Surgery? Tell us which âsideâ youâre on via our Twitter page.Â

When it comes to French food in this town, there's a mode for every mood, whether you're looking for a bistro-standard croque-monsieur or a meticulously plated, multicourse extravaganza. Deuxave's wunderkind chef, Christopher Coombs, cherry-picks from both styles, deftly weaving what could be contradictory impulses—hearty (upgraded) French onion soup; the swoosh-heavy, haute-cuisine-styled "Duo of Pork & First of the Season Apricots" —into an improbably cohesive menu.
Back Bay has many fancy, pricey restaurants suitable for romance and special occasions, but few are as lovely as this jewel in the crown of chef Chris Coombs and partner Brian Piccini's budding empire. Coombs works luxurious ingredients in traditional French and New American idioms, rendering them in gorgeous, painterly platings, complemented by swoony desserts and a fabulous wine list. With its tranquil palette-of-grays room and beautiful fireplace, expect to witness discreet proposals of marriage (and business).

Pulis praises Potters' effort
Tony Pulis felt Stoke got to grips with the elements as they held Blackpool to a goalless draw.
By Soriebah Kajue
Last Updated: 30/04/11 7:01pm
Tony Pulis felt that Stoke got to grips with the elements as they held Blackpool to a goalless draw at Bloomfield Road.
A gusty wind swept across the Lancashire ground throughout the 90 minutes and it made things slightly awkward for both teams.
But the Potters boss felt his side slightly shaded the game as they took another step towards securing a top-10 Premier League finish.
"The wind was with Blackpool for the first half and they had more of the play down our side of the pitch, although I felt that we had the best chances," he told Sky Sports.
"In the second half, I felt that we took control of the game, and like I say, the result is a fair result in a lot of respects.
"But it was an honest game with a lot of people having a go and plenty of effort.
"Blackpool are a really committed team and they make you play for every pass and challenge, and they get men forward and attack you on both sides of the pitch.
"But I felt that we were a little bit unlucky not to get the three points but it was a good clean sheet, but it was always going to be a difficult game for us."
Record signing
Stoke should have won the game when their record signing Kenwyne Jones beat Blackpool keeper Matt Gilks to the ball and rounded him but somehow missed an open net.
It had been in stark contrast to his recent goalscoring form that had seen him net in each of his last four games.
Pulis added: "Kenwyne has done brilliant for us all season and we are delighted with him, but strikers are going to score great goals and miss chances.
"He will probably have a look at that tonight and turn his head."

Heterogeneity in Preferences and Productivity – Implications for Retirement
This paper discusses the determinants of the retirement decision and the implications of retirement on economic well-being. The main contribution of the paper is to formulate the role of individual heterogeneity explicitly. We argue that individual heterogeneity in 1) productivity of market work versus housework, 2) preferences for leisure compared to consumption, and 3) marginal utility of wealth, is correlated with the retirement decision. Based on US consumption and time use data for 2001 and 2003 from the Consumptions and Activities Mail Survey (CAMS), we study the patterns of individual choices of expenditure, household production and leisure for people in and around retirement. The unobserved individual heterogeneity factor is isolated by comparing cross-sectional evidence and panel data estimates of the effects of retirement on consumption and time allocation. Based on cross-section data, we can identify a difference in consumption due to retirement status, but when the panel nature of the data is exploited, the effect of retirement on consumption is small and insignificant. Moreover, the analyses point at a large positive effect of retirement on household production. Our results therefore contribute to the discussion of the so-called retirement-consumption puzzle. Many analyses of the retirement-consumption drop assume that the retirement decision is exogenous. However, the individual decision on when to retire may depend on expected changes in consumption and time allocation. This suggests that the retirement decision is endogenous. To test this, we apply an instrumental variables method in the treatment effects tradition.
