The Other Conquest

Directed by Salvador Carrasco

With Damián Delgado, José Carlos Rodríguez, Elpidia Carrillo, Zaide Silvia Gutiérrez and Iñaki Aierra

The film is a drama about the aftermath of the 1520s Spanish Conquest of Mexico told from the perspective of the indigenous Aztec people. It explores the social, religious, and psychological changes brought about by a historical process of colonization that both defined the American continent and is also highly reminiscent of today’s neocolonialism.
