A raw and moving look into the Very real aspects of the Shining Path years in Peru. Throughout the early 80's Peru faced a difficult situation. The Shining Path were seen as terrorists by the army. The Army was seen as brutal by the peasants. The peasants would become victims to both. This film shows you the 3 sides of the story. The Peasant's, the soldiers, and the Revolutionary's. Aside from an obvious low-budget-look/ technical flaws... the Essence of the story in this film makes up for it. It actually has a real/documentary type look to it. Anyone interested in this aspect of history should check out this film more than once.
