    Where Were You?
    An embarassing affair, and sometimes amazingly revealing... Abner Benaim had access to a generous budget to put Chorrilleros (people from the poor neighborhood of El Chorrillo which was devastated by American troops during the 1989 USA invasion to Panamá) to reenact a few things of which the filmmaker was curious about... How to put a dead body in a bag, how the Chorrilleros laid down on the street as American soldiers were abusing them, how USA parachutists should have felt when they fell into slime believing it was sand, and so on... We also watch a rich elderly Panamanian husband and wife tell how moved they were by the face of a young baby-face G.I. and how they served him a steak, or a young fellow (looking very gay) candidly narrate in awe that he was guest in the nunciature residence where Manuel Antonio Noriega hid, while the young man was spending a few days with the nuncio... Seeing is believing. Up to this day many Panamanians think they were liberated in the name of democracy, and this documentary seems to believe it too, unless otherwise intended but not seen herein.

    It seems as if the working title of this were "Where Were You When the Bombs Were Launched?"
