This is the most powerful, unforgettable and life-altering film I've seen in ages., 5 April 2001

Author: Kate Egan from San Francisco, CA

This is the most powerful, unforgettable and life-altering film I've seen in ages. It's amazing that I'm Irish and I felt it was about the story of my people, even though it's about the Aztecs and Spanish. What's wrong with you distributors out there? Why isn't this film playing nationwide?!?!?
