Maria Conchita Alonso at her very Best

This movie would have got nowhere without Maria Conchita Alonso’s performance, the powerful plot and shocking end is really a work of art. It is commented that Maria Conchita Alonso wanted to buy the rights for the movie but the rights owner didn’t want to. Whatever happened this movie has not been released in English language, and a great performance from Maria Conchita, can’t be seen yet. The movie shows the ordeals that some people from Colombia went thru, to get to stay in Venezuela, Maria Conchita plays a high society woman obsessed with her lover. The movie shows a very rare often edited scene, where Maria Conchita Alonso gets raped in a Ladies bathroom. Dark very powerful, raw and controversial, this is one of Maria Conchita Alonso’s greatest performances, a must see.Read More »

SYNOPSIS:

In early twentieth-century Brittany, two peasants marry, have a son, and live in traditional Breton ways: three generations under one roof, a division of labor between the sexes, elders’ stories at night, politics and religion during their little free time. Times are hard: la Chienne du Monde drives some to suicide; Ankou (death) is close at hand. Pierre is born into this republican family, his lyric childhood interrupted by the outbreak of war and his father’s conscription. He learns his catechism and, as a child of a Reds, also reveres school. His grandfather and father often put him on their shoulders, giving him a ride on the horse of pride.Read More »
