La noche de 12 años

A film that shows how extremism takes away people's lives and freedom. Great performances and perfect music.

This movie was a surprise to me , powerful story and great performances, sometimes hard and disturbing to watch but that what this people suffered for their freedom

Please watch this movie... A beautiful movie.. A brilliant true story.. This are not a marvel heroes!! This are the true super heroes!!!

What really gripped me here is that this movie was based on real men who spent twelve long years in solitary confinement. The first thing to know is that this is a drama so don't expect tons of action and war like a lot of military films.

This film depicts these three men and their suffering while desperately trying to cling onto hope. Not everyone talks about it, but this is a sad reality for a lot of political prisoners or hostages. The film does well capturing the pain and torment these men endured at the hands of their captures.

I do however feel like we could have received more detailed background on their detainment as those scenes were sometimes unclear. Considering how long the film is, they could have easily cut some of the repetition towards the second half and focused more on that. Other than being called communists, it's a little unclear of the actual events that led them to be locked up in the first place.

This movie gives one a ring side seat into human depravity on the hand and the human spirit on the other. Enthralling cinema.
