It is May 1520 in the vast Aztec Empire one year after the Spanish Conqueror Hernán Cortés' arrival in Mexico. "The Other Conquest" opens with the infamous massacre of the Aztecs at the Great Temple of Tenochtitlan [what is now called Mexico City]. The sacred grounds are covered with the countless bodies of priests and nobility slaughtered by the Spanish Armies under Cortés' command. The lone Aztec survivor of the massacre is a young Indian scribe named Topiltzin [Damián Delgado]. Topiltzin, who is the illegitimate son of the Aztec Emperor Moctezuma, survives the onslaught by burying himself under a stack of bodies.

粗制而不滥造,晦涩但不娇柔,墨西哥传统文化复苏运动和宗教反思的高潮产物
教授历经7年山穷水尽断草断粮能拍出这个效果已经很值得后辈学习了
顶着完全听不懂的西班牙语坚持看完了……一头雾水= =
This is a rare film now that provides food for thought~
似懂非懂。。。la cultura mexicana 9.26
大量的血腥场面直观阐述1520年西班牙帝国对墨西哥的灭绝性侵略。通过“人可以被毁灭,但不能被打败”的主旋来透视宗教,欺人又自欺。所以Topiltzin和Friar Diego都无一能逃悲惨结局。反是暴虐无度的将军,从头至尾看得最透彻。卑鄙是卑鄙者的通行证, 高尚是高尚者的墓志铭。
其实拍得很好,音乐有点太多但也不差,关键是故事太艰涩,隐喻很人工化。
