THis is a must see. It is a great historical film. The whole movie is great it really teaches you history while you are watching a good movie. It is set in the XVII century in an important moment of Peruvian and Latin American History in which national identity is being defined. The mixing of blood and culture, the traumatic encounter of two worlds (the spanish and indian), the process of religious syncretism, but also personal ambition and self-determination set up the background for the journey of two outcasts who must confront intolerance and prejudice.
