4.0 out of 5 stars intriging, February 25, 2004

The movie is well placed; portraided in 1968 in the Mexican UNAM student's revolution; and keeping pretty much all the facts together. It portrayes a fictional, but at the same time true story, a story of a foreign visitor: who is forced by the Mexican Federales to accomplish a plot against a student leader, in order to end all the students uprisings. Just when you think you understand what is going on, you end up understanding what it is like being at the end of the blade instead of holding it. It's a great movie to make people understand what immigrants have to go through, deal with, and sometimes even pay for.

5.0 out of 5 stars FRANCISCA, May 2, 2004

I loved the film and the story that is told. It was an enriching experience to watch a it. Ths actors, music and photography are great. The characters and setting are very well portrayed. I was very moved. I think that the main characters conflict with honesty is something that all of us must think about, specially in times like the ones we are living now. I strongly recommend the film.
