- DirectorFelipe CazalsStarsEnrique LuceroSalvador SánchezErnesto Gómez CruzA group of university employees arrive in a small village during a hiking expedition. Once there, the local priest accuses them of being university students who're attempting to spread communism and mobilizes the townspeople to lynch them.I North America
1-Mexico:
Telling the true shocking story of some university employees who decided to go hiking in the little town of "Canoa" .. but soon after the local priest had accused them of being communists the whole town was chasing and wanting to kill them.
This was a hard film to watch because of the dark gruesome story it had to tell, and unfortunately for us it was so masterfully done you have to be invested in the characters you watch being brutally ....
A good movie that will leave you shocked, angry and vindictive but as a viewer satisfied.
7/10 - DirectorZacharias KunukStarsNatar UngalaaqSylvia IvaluPeter-Henry ArnatsiaqThe telling of an Inuit legend of an evil spirit causing strife in the community and one warrior's endurance and battle of its menace.2-Canada:
This is exactly what i was looking for when i started this crazy idea .. a movie from a part of the world i knew nothing about, people speaking a ''dying'' language that i never heard, a music score played by instruments i never listened to. adding all that to it's a really well made movie and we have a piece of art .. set as a docudrama taken place about a millennium ago and telling an Inuit ancient story, it was so immersive to the point that at times you can forget you are watching a film.
8/10 - DirectorJayro BustamanteStarsMaría Mercedes CoroySabrina De La HozMargarita KenéficAn aging paranoid war criminal, protected by his faithful wife, faces death while being haunted by the ghosts of his past.3-Guatemala :
The ghost of an innocent endogenous woman killed by a Guatemalan general appears in his late days seeking revenge.
Have no idea why it was nominated for the Oscars for best foreign film .. the horror part was just bad and out of place .. the movie lacked so much pace to the level i lost interest in what was happening .. third act was decent but it was too late .. ending song was the only ''good'' thing about it.
5/10 - DirectorMikhail KalatozovStarsSergio CorrieriSalvador WoodJosé GallardoFour vignettes about the lives of the Cuban people set during the pre-revolutionary era.4-Cuba:
Four short stories about the poor living conditions in Cuba amid the cold war under the American rulership before the revolution (was a soviet propaganda).
While being stunning in cinematography and very creative in the camera work i think it suffered from mediocre acting and ''lazy'' work from the extras (in the first story to be specific) what made the whole experience not very pleasant.
7/10 - DirectorMatthiew KlinckStarsMiriam Antoinette-OchaetaJim Goodchild ArnoldArran BevisA sealed ancient Mayan cave would be blown open unleashing Xtabai to wreak havoc on the world and destroy civilization. She begins by infecting the inhabitants of a nearby village with a terrible and deadly fever. The government responds by placing the village under quarantine.

Will they ultimately succeed in defeating the evil Xtabai and saving mankind from her curse? How many will live to tell the tale?5-Belize :
One of the actors was laughing while being eaten by some sea monster .. its safe to say the actors had much more fun making this film than i had watching it.
3/10 - DirectorChristian PovedaStarsJosé Roberto MartínezSilvia Portillo LópezAna Burgos Arévalo"La Vida Loca" reflects a depressing and hopeless reality. The documentary, by photojournalist and filmmaker Christian Poveda, follows some of the members of "la dieciocho", the so-called 18th Street gang in a poor San Salvador neighborhood.6-El Salvador :
5ra
1/10 - DirectorCary Joji FukunagaStarsPaulina GaitanMarco Antonio AguirreLeonardo AlonsoA young Honduran girl and a Mexican gangster are united in a journey across the U.S. border.7-Honduras :
About a honduran girl and her family trying to finish their long journey to reach America illegally .. it was alright, nothing to write about.
6/10 - DirectorFlorence JaugeyStarsAlma BlancoRigoberto MayorgaGabriel BenavidesThis is the story of Yuma a strong-willed and rebellious girl from the poor neighborhoods of Managua who dreams of being a boxer.8-Nicaragua :
allmenbadallwomengood .. nothing else to it (oh trans men are ok too)
3/10 - DirectorAntonella SudasassiStarsDaniela ValencianoLeynar GomezIsabella MoscosoIsa has more than enough on her plate with two children and the household, which she manages on her own. When her husband persists with his wish for a third child, she realizes that something must change.9-Costa Rica :
Life isn't always white or black, in fact it's -and for the most part- gray .. this movie following some gray days of the life of a housewife when her husband and his family insist on having a third kid a thing she dosent want.
Some times the way you represent your views is more important than the views themselves ..and for sure preaching and gagging about these views isnt the way (talking to you Nicaragua) .. a more impactful feminist movie addressing a subtle but serious problem and for an answer it represented a proportioned subtle solution.
I really enjoyed this movie, it was a beautiful surprise as CostaRica's neighbors really have set the bar very low, it maybe lacked some pace in the 2nd act, but all in all it was a really beautiful movie.
7/10 - DirectorJonathan JakubowiczStarsEdgar RamírezUsherRobert De NiroThe legendary Roberto Duran and his equally legendary trainer Ray Arcel change each other's lives.10-Panma :
This movie took itself way too seriously and tried so hard to be a great movie .. it wasnt

As tensions build, Horsemouth and friends plot to end the gangsters reign of terror and restore justice to the people of Kingston.11-Jamaica:
No idea what it was all about, had some good songs tho.
5/10 - DirectorDwayne 'DC' ColesStarsDoctor DréEd LoverCassandra LewisTwo guys want to get laid. Ed Lover and Doctor Dré both has cameos too.12-The Bhamas
...Was funny.
4/10 - DirectorMartin ScorseseStarsLeonardo DiCaprioRobert De NiroLily GladstoneWhen oil is discovered in 1920s Oklahoma under Osage Nation land, the Osage people are murdered one by one - until the FBI steps in to unravel the mystery.13-The United States
9/10 - DirectorLisa HarewoodStarsMarcia BurrowesChé-Annika MayersWhen a barrel arrives from London bearing an unwelcome parcel, a caregiver in Barbados makes a hasty decision that risks destroying her special bond with a beloved child.14-Barbados
A short film about the emotional troubles of a caregiver "Auntie" when her teenage niece decides to leave to England leaving her alone in Barbados; no idea why would someone leave such a beautiful place.
It felt like hollow .. punch of scenes one after another no continuity .. not bad but a missed opportunity.
6/10 - DirectorHoward AllenStarsCentelia BrowneDenise FrancisJanil GreenawayAntigua's first feature film is a romantic comedy that tells the story of Lovelyanne 'Luv" Davies, who returns from Canada to Antigua and her struggles to adjust to life on a small island. It follows her professional turmoil and personal drama, including being caught in an unexpected love triangle.15-Antigua and Barbuda
A film about a young Antiguan woman who have been living in Canada for 21 years but returned home for a work opportunity .. finds herself in a love triangle with her rich boss and the poor subordinate .. you know how it goes ; the subordinate wins, love prevails, cliche cliche.
Beautiful scenery, beautiful people, a decent movie, nothing special.
