The Other Conquest
|
| About
the Film: |
|
Set in the 1520s in Mexico, The Other Conquest depicts
the struggle of the Aztec Emperor's son to preserve his
people's religious and cultural identity in the wake of
the invasion of his land by Spanish conquerors and clergymen.
Catholic priests began spreading the gospel to the local
"heathens" while the Spanish soldiers pillaged
the Mexican countryside. Though the region was once regarded
as one of the most advanced societies in the Western Hemisphere
at the time of the Europeans' arrival, the land, the people
and its culture were soon shattered.
As such, the film deals with the two forms of conquest
- physical and spiritual - that are inherent to colonization,
but even more importantly, it tells the story of the natives'
creative resistance against all odds in their will to
survive with dignity and pride.
The film delves into the religious, sexual and political
conflicts that arise whenever civilizations clash, which
gives the picture a powerful historical dimension and
its present-day relevance.
