Title: Not a movie but a true film.
Review: [Originally a comment to a previous review.]What this film portrays is the ruthlessness of profit-driven policy, and the struggle to maintain some semblance of dignity and cultural history. This is well summarized by the tale about Gods of creation, told by the grandfather to his inquisitive grandchild. Done in black and white, relatively little dialogue and masterful cinematography, the film provides a painting of the human will to survive, and the humanity that can sometimes be found in the most unlikely of places. There are not enough such films - historic depictions that double as artistic masterpieces. After watching this film, it may be worthwhile to look at the history involved, and to trace America's involvement in the issues. Perhaps this will lead to a broader understanding of indigenous issues related to Latin America, and the School of the Americas as well. True art transcends entertainment and this, for "us," can sometimes be challenging.Peace,E.S.M.
