Verano Eterno - Fiesta Grande - Part 14

Difficulty: Intermediate

Argentina

While some people are trying to get to the party at all costs (and that means dodging grandma’s attentions for Benji), the only thing Tomás wants to do is to get out of there. Don’t let the panza pain fool you, he’s definitely in love with Clara. We can feel the temperature growing higher and the plot getting closer and closer to the ignition point.

Biografía - Natalia Oreiro - Part 8

Difficulty: Adv-Intermediate

Argentina

Imagine the shock to Natalia’s parents when they first saw another couple on the TV claiming that she was their child. Unfortunately, such a thing was not, in fact, entirely impossible. A blood test, however, proved the sad couple wrong. Natalia’s starring role in Ricos Y Famosos would soon bring Natalia, and her actual mom and dad, back to the top of the world.

Estado Falcón - Locos de la Vela - Part 3

Difficulty: Intermediate

Venezuela

It’s quite possible that El Día de Los Locos, as celebrated in La Vela de Coro, has its roots as far back as the Roman Empire, which celebrated Saturnalia at the same time of year. Both festivals, historically, involve turning the social order on its head, with slaves dressing like their masters.

Biografía - Natalia Oreiro - Part 7

Difficulty: Adv-Intermediate

Argentina, Uruguay

When a strange man insists he is Natalia’s true father, she is oddly sympathetic, “we all know about el proceso.” But do we? The “process” is shorthand for the era of military dictatorships that engulfed the Southern Cone in the mid 70’s. During this era, untold numbers of infants of suspected “subversives” were kidnapped, often taken by police or military members to raise as their own.

Con ánimo de lucro - Cortometraje - Part 10

Difficulty: Adv-Intermediate

Spain

Joan Planas continues to pull no punches, taking on NGOs, television, and the Catholic church. Oddly enough, despite his firebrand rhetoric, the film ends on a rather conservative note, suggesting that perhaps what poor nations need is not so much charity but rather a change in actitude, or “attitude,” so as to reflect the mindset of people in successful nations. Tune in to find out the details.

Not only does our filmmaker continue with his diatribe against the state of society as he finds it in Nicaragua, but the story takes an investigative turn. We find that not only doesn’t sponsored-child Christina del Carmen match the photo that had been supplied by Ayuda en Acción, she is also not yet enrolled in a school.
