The best movie of 1998 in the latin american cinema, Alberto Durand relates to us the life of the pacific activist Maria Elena Moyano, an amazing woman whose legacy will be eternal for the civilian activism in Perú.

Sometimes I blame the critics and the members of the academy in the US., for not awarding this great movie, that sure is the best work of Oliver Stone, better than the academy award winning "Platoon", sure is the best movie of the 90's together with "Underground", "Pulp Fiction", "Life is Beautiful" and "An eternity and a Day". A movie that make you feel isn't enough to see it once, not because is about a foreign president assasination, you can't feel the power of this film that dare all the filmakers of the world, to do something about that mean world that laugh about us, while our heart are claming for justice. A masterpiece 10/10. I dare you to believe in what you can do for yourself.

One of the 5 best Latin American Films of this decade, a powerful story about life, death and find or lose a reason to live, a style of filmmaking at that time original, until Quentin Tarantino impact the world with the golden palm winner "Pulp Fiction", 4 stories that are link each other with powerful and convincing performances, without an exaggerated script, this social drama international award winning, it's a "must see" movie, that convinces the audience with the great direction of Francisco Lombardi. Really Great and a reason to still love the new cinema.
