Spacca La Testa
Antonia and Zeno struggle with their marriage during a surreal dinner - while a mysterious Aztec whistle seems to be influencing their actions.
The Other Conquest
The spirit of a people can never be conquered.
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.
