Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

A young bright officer is given another rank and a VERY special assignment.

It is part real story, part satire on Peruvian society, but the end result is interesting, so I am curious if anyone seen it.

As the credits start to roll, do not rush with your judgment - instead read a bit on the film, on the actor and on the story.
