When: 7:45 PM, Saturday, March 19 (post Irish Days)
Who With: JL
Movie Count: 21
Snacks: We ate and drank so much at JP and VP's Irish Days bash that we walked right passed the concessions.
Reaction: Holy Smokes! This movie is a force. It was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film and comes to us from Columbia. We get to time travel to the 1900s and 1940s and travel travel to a black and white Amazon to see the story of how indigenous cultures were affected by white explorers. (It's not good.)
This story shares many similarities with co-nominees, Theeb and Son of Saul, including a river escape and unabashed tellings of the disgusting effect of inhumane power imbalances.
Recommendation: Let’s Go! | Let it come to you | Let it pass
Next Up: The Lady in the Van
