A great film about the clash between cultures and spirits., 28 December 2002
10/10
Author: Inserts from Larkspur, California

Chac is one of the best films ever produced and distributed about the shamanism of an indigenous culture in conflict with the material/technological/monotheistic world. It is a small story with a grand statement and emotional impact.
