This is an incredible film that portrays the Shining Path revolt in Peru under a different name. Even though it doesnt necessarily portray the revolutionaries in a good light (it was directed by right winger John Malkovich) it does point out some problems in Latin America and briefly discuss Anti-Revisionist principle.

Out of curiosity, why do you call John Malkovich a "right-winger"?

From what I have read he is pretty conservative (supporter of Dubya) not saying he is facist just conservative. I might be wrong if you know something else....

Turns out the douchebag is pretty fascist after all, he claimed George Galloway should be shot and apparently draws his fashion sense from, get this, the Taliban:
