YES YOUR WAITING THE FARMERto be shot & Suprise of EMPATHY, what a shock it still exists,Llama exquisite, Maria Selfish deed Boys Leg for dying elderly woman by Blackmail, YUK, THAT stinks, Boy such good Actor..
This is a 1 in a thousand movie. Unless you have a heart of stone you will find this moving to the max, on so levels. There is so much depth here. Don't be dissuaded by a slow start. It is so well worth it. Everything is needed, everything is used to better remind of us real priorities. Priorities that you would appreciate when taking your last breaths.
What touched me the most is when the young boy said.."l can still watch the animals "..he reminded me of my son that lost his life after 10 years of fighting..l never heard my son complain..children are so often perfect little people , living among us, putting up with us..and we have no idea. My deepest respect for all parents that are living the nightmare of a child who isn't well.
Deep condolences, Wood Wage. I can very well relate to you. My son has been diagnosed with DMD and he's just 5 years old. Extremely difficult and painful for me to see his condition deteriorate every day 😥 Per the doctors he will be with us for 10 to 12 years which is so saddening 💔
I loved how the story unfolds from the beginning to end. The movie inspired me to be fair and be kind because someone is fighting a battle you don't know. I appreciate the love of father to his son.
Life is not about the money, it's about people. Probably for the first time in his career Oliver made a compassionate & sensible decision. This is a wonderful movie, not really a thriller, but very, very worthwhile to watch - and think about.
Oliver made the decision because of the loss of his friend and also haven't found that the said land was rich in gold deposit. Meanwhile the initial intention of the buyer of the land was for agricultural purposes.
Words are not enough to describe this movies. The actors did amazing job. You can never quantify human life. The father did not hesitate to sign the document to save his son's life. Human greed, selfishness, decadence have no limit but sacrifice is still the hallmark of few human beings. The movie is thought provoking. I really appreciate the crews. From Nigeria
What a movie. Definitely deserves worldwide recognition and needs to be translated into many languages, as the theme is so central. Hats off to the Producer and his team. Love from India
I couldn't of said that more perfectly (as I'm balling my eyes out). Impactful indeed. So many life lessons, choices, outcomes, perspectives changed, lives changed, reality of scrupulous financial/life deals, reality of struggles, losing hope, regaining hope, justice yet not, etc.
I agree, I totally cried when the Son realized he lost his leg, said I can still take care of the animals. 😥 It was incredible how all their lives were interwoven. Big surprise when he realized Nathan new along the land was sitting on Gold mine. So happy he gave the Father his contract back.
wow! The actor who played the little boys father is a phenomenal actor! the whole cast was great. I hope to see movies of this quality more often. well worth watching! powerful story that pulled the tears from my grown-up man eyes. such a fine piece of work! can't say enough about well done this movie was!
This movie really made me cry. It is good to know that love, consideration, sympathy, care, utmost understanding of people's feelings and positive perceptions prevail. Kudos to all the cast! They are great.👌❤️ Thank you for giving this such nice movie!👍👌♥️
I love this movie I'm still crying when I saw the little boy had lost his leg it tore me apart is definitely a movie I will watch again and I want my husband to see this thank you so much for making it
@@66hoodwitch if the story sucks won't stand to watch it, if the director sucks the whole film becomes a waste, everything else is secondary to it, you thank the others nobody's gonna stop you,
Phenomenal movie! Great writing, great acting, great camerawork, great directing, just one complete work. Its time there were a LOT more Hispanic/American collaborations. There are so many compelling storylines one can weave. That little boy should get an Oscar!
Some of us were brought up from childhood in a ruthless world but learned quickly that love a compassion are more important. However children born into privelege never experienced this and after university studies they would become ruthless and difficult to change as entitlement was all they knew.Thank you Peru and whoever made this movie. An excellent example of how to save the world. Great acting too.
I got emotionally involved in this movie. May God deliver us from the love of money. When movies become realistic than idealistic. It's great when movies teaches us life lessons and shows us reality. Thank you for this movie
Damn! Was not expecting to hug the tissue box. Hardest hit was when the father took to the pen not even knowing in detail what he's signing because his son's life was all that mattered. 😭 I think the nugget should've been included in the envelope. Great cast and cinematography. I also enjoyed listening to the dialect of the high mountain region and scenery of that land is breathtaking. Must visit Peru one day! Thank so much for this upload!
@@honeyonairraja surely a moment that showed the father's illiteracy which took me by storm because it reminded me of my parents who never had a chance at education. Heart-touching moment indeed in the movie.
I thought the same, but how would he have known it was from his land? Maybe that’s why they didn’t put it in? I’ve spent time with the Quechua and they wouldn’t have done anything with the gold anyway, they don’t like anything to do with the government. They are also very simple people and don’t want or need anything that comes with that sort of thing.
The movie carefully portrays Corporation's exploitation of the farmers, human's greed, frustration for delayed medical treatment, indigenous people loving their own land, love for the children and above all realising a mistake and turning away from it.. Great movie!!!
Yes, this was so excellent. I remember thinking how poignant these tragedies were to each of the people involved. I could feel the effects of the story as it unfolded, knowing that the truth was being told. One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. We need more representation of the human dilemmas we have to face and how choices are made, sometime good and sometimes not, sometimes for oneself and sometimes for others.
Tell me what offers those people for the whole country??? they had those lands for long time and they never changed the landscape,, never produced richness for them or the country,,, they just worked for surviving not for the interest of other,,, its time to leave those lands for those who make money and pay taxes for the government makes school hospital etc and create services that your country will never have if you don't sacrifice your resources. The other way to create wellness in the population is by putting your brain at work,, but those people never do at least that,,, so when you defend those people you don't know what is the tradition of their life,,, let me tell you,,, turn the money in alcohol, turn the money in coca leave, turn the money in saving which never turn into shopping so the money in bad hands becomes trash,,, the consumers make the money into life for those who work.... I am sick and tired of those social fighters who defend the people they don't know
@@patriziapatrish I agree. And thanks for your respectful comment. In other cases I could have received and insult. We have different perspectives and its só difficult tô think as one, but the Society sometimes fight itself for something they dont know
It always happens in my India. I belong to eastern part of India , this state is rich in minerals & resources. Coal mines, iron ores , uranium, bauxite - there are many mines & industries which was built on indigenous people’s . These people lost their lands , they were exploited by corporate sharks 😭
It’s crazy how money (greed) can take someone down a dark rabbit hole. Most of us don’t see what is behind the scenes when it comes to land, government, money, and how it affects lives. Excellently written and produced.
We need to start thinking before we sign something, There are a few multi- Billionaires, while millions starve, I pray humanity wakes up and starts working together, and loving one another, great movie, love to everyone.
A rare and thought-provoking film. Beautifully evokes the harsh realities of rural Peruvian life, and also the triumph of the human spirit over greed and corruption.
So touching and thought provocative . This movie had it all, compassion, sacrifice, profound love for one’s identity, it exposed the greed of foreign investors in the developing world and their disregard for the human values of the indigenous people! Then there was Maria, going to any length to save her mother. Thanks for uploading, we need more of such movies.
An excellent movie that must be seen by big corporations! It makes me sick when a greedy corporation tries to grab and acquire acres of land from indigenous people! A great movie that depicts that love, consideration, sympathy, care, utmost understanding of people's feelings and positive perceptions still prevail! Thank you for uploading this great movie for people around the world to learned from!
Recommended! Made in 2013. IMDB shows 2015 release. Robert Pugsley said it right: "Slow to the middle, all areas getting set. The second half, all the areas come together." Good acting from everyone. 1.5 hours of my time well spent.
When the father sign the paper agreeing to sell his land for the sake of his son..I almost cried. 😢 A sad reality of life that is happening in this real world way before and now. The best story.
YES and how many are suffering right here in the gold old USA, because our healthcare is for profit !! The 1% would not shed a tear! Death and suffering for profit, makes me vomit!
@@vera98021 -- if you knew the in if the affordable act, you would vomit 🤮🤢 ten times over!! The brand name insurance carriers are racking in the Hugh profits, and the working class paying for it, to benefit the 1%!!! 🤬😤😡☹️😠😤 It's ugly 99% don't even know what's really going on with that program it's probably best, they would just live in distress, not being able to change anything!!! This is one of Obama HUGH PAY OUTS, HIS MAKING MILLIONS OFF THIS DEAL HE CREATED, FOR THE 1%.
All teary and all... how the boy was so passionate about locating the lost animal, how he was so interested in the flying chopper, the woman's passion about her mother's health, the friend that was always there taking care of her ailing mum...gosh this is a must watch!
i do. comments first before settling down for the uplifting moments. thank you for uploading insprstional movies that leave us profound redeeming values.
What a great movie. When the nurse said "I'm tired of waiting," it showed the consequences of impatience and not considering the pain and needs of others. There was so much to learn from this movie, especially the greediness of big corporations.
Yes, this movie was so beautiful because of the many layers of complex emotions and consequences. I felt the nurse had compassion for the boy. She acted she acted out of love for her mother but was not indifferent to the fact that she was putting the boy at risk. Her love for her mother was as deep, real as the farmer's love for his son. She felt relief and gratitude for her mother's recovery while at the same time feeling pain for the boy's injury. Her choice was not rooted in self absorption/self centeredness, nor stubbornness, nor indifference to the boy she didn't know... it was love. We saw her struggle with the decision, but in the end, she simply loved her mother too much to see her suffer any more. We saw that the nurse understood the consequence of her decision and chose to see it with open eyes, will carry the weight of what happened to the boy, because her heart filled with love. Life isn't easy, or black and white, when you live having compassion and empathy for others in addition to trying to take care of yourself and those you love. It was beautiful to see the transformation of the land dealer, he finally saw the reality around him.
@@seanhammer6296 possibly; however, she will forever be haunted by the fact that she is the reason why this young boy lost his leg. I understand about her mother, as I too, was a caregiver for my mom for over a decade. One more day would not have matter, as her mom could have taken more pain medication. Granted, not ideal,; however, she was finally in the hospital under a Dr's care. Yet, I don't understand, her Dr could perform only one surgery a day? No more Drs or because it's socialist medicine, as surgeries are rationed?
@@donnabacon4681 SHE will be forever haunted? I think you are putting yourself in her place.😊 You bring up a good point about only one surgery per day.
What a gem of a movie-and what an understatement, too! An impressively clever plot that evolves from seemingly incoherent at first and gradually gels over the message that human perception and judgment is incapable of reaching beyond the limitations of the simplistic individual's grasp without figuring in other parties, regardless of culture or status. Not flattering, but factual. An astute analysis of the self-perpetuating origins of conflict among our kind and a very difficult message to bring across plainly and convincingly in a feature lenght movie without appearing artificial, patronizing or otherwise stilted.
What a great movie .the most touching part was the boy after seeing his amputated leg and still sayin “ I can still take care of the animals “ oh boy you’re so handsome and lovely ♥️♥️♥️
Father's love to a precious son...gave up d land he treasured most but thanks Oliver made d right decision...This is another one amazing movie, a bit dragging but unique story line. Thanks for sharing👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Omg! Thankyou for Uploading this Film it realy Touches my Heart and drops some Tears.. This is not only a Film this this a Reality life of So many People living in Poverty..
This sure was not an ordinary movie with the usual well known 'stars' and a "cookie-cutter" script. This was powerful and gut wrenching and exposed the dark side of International development projects in 3rd world countries at the expense of the people of that country. These unknown ( at least to me here in the U.S. ) actors showed their heart and soul and did an outstanding and believable job. I read a book some years ago now called " Confessions Of An Economic Hitman", written by a man named John Perkins. I highly recommend getting this book. He told how he worked for these international corporations and went to these types of 3rd world countries and financed huge projects such as oil and energy projects like hydroelectric projects. When the country could not pay their debt when it was demanded by the corporations, the corporations would take over the economy of the country and the people were worse off than before. This stuff really happens...it's not just a sad movie...it is hard core reality.
I think he changed the real story on his book to appease the government. What I know is that he worked for a corporation hired by USA government to do the dirty deed for them. How? He would travel to Central or South American countries with a briefcase filled with a million dollars. He would offer the money to corrupt presidents of some of these countries for free in exchange of selling a national or government company for at a reduced rate to american companies. If the presidents wouldn't take the money, they would come up with an attempt to kill that president. If he or they took the money, the corporations would charge them compound interest that they could never repay. Perkins regretted this later on and exposed his company and the government for these fraud and criminal extortion dealings. I think it was a president of Ecuador at the time that missed getting on his plane and a bomb went off on the flight where his life was saved by not taking the flight. Perkins exposed this on the internet because his life was threatened to get killed. He said, he did it on the internet on the open, because, if he was killed, everybody, the public, would know who was behind his death. 🤔
It is still happening. If you look at Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Myanmar where huge projects funded by you know who are putting these countries to bankruptcy.
Es una gran tristeza que en estos tiempos dizque de gran avance tecnológico los más necesitados sigan padeciendo la ambición de los más ricos y poderosos, excelente película.
All the beautiful comments make the producer of this beautiful movie, PROUD AND WE ARE GIVEN HIM AN OSCAR, THE WHOLE HUMANITY IS GIVEN YOU AN OSCAR. WE LOVE YOUR PRODUCTION.
Its hard to loose the material but there are still humans on this earth who care humans rather than the material. Very excellent movie. Congrats to the team.
this is a great film that shows that being humane is still possible in this world. May god bless people who make films like this. This is from chennai, India. Iam proud to say that I have seen this film. God bless.

such a good movie, deep, clever, touching, reflecting sad realities. Excellent actors. The long moments of silence are worth more than hours of speech.
Stephen Dorff is an underrated Hollywood actor. In my own opinion, he always get the character in every film he does. This is one of the films by which he nailed the character of a hedge fund banker named Oliver. Kudos!
This was a great movie ... all about choice and the responsibilities and outcome of those choices. all lessons to learn and grow.. thankyou for this gem.
Extraordinary film production. The realities of big shrewd corporate industries. The lives that are affected by poverty - the struggles and various dilemma's that push individuals to choose - in the midst of the repercussions.
Lo que más me conmovió fue cuando el niño dijo: "Todavía puedo ver a los animales". Me recordó a mi hijo que perdió la vida después de 10 años de lucha. Nunca escuché a mi hijo quejarse. tan a menudo personitas perfectas, viviendo entre nosotros, aguantándonos... y no tenemos idea. Mi más profundo respeto para todos los padres que están viviendo la pesadilla de un niño que no está bien.
I can imagine this movie hits close to home in that you could relate to the father's anguish of his son's loss of part of his leg because of the insufficient medical support needed to serve the needs of many people. Me imagino que esta película es muy familiar, ya que podría relacionarse con la angustia del padre por la pérdida de parte de la pierna de su hijo debido al apoyo médico insuficiente necesario para atender las necesidades de muchas personas.
I just watched this movie 4.11.24 and from the middle of the movie I just cried😭😭😭 I don't like greedy-selfish people or people who abuse the poor. GREAT MOVIE. I loved the end but I'm still crying 😭. Great actors. Love Llamas. Enjoy❣️
Soy peruana en este momento de crisis político me conmueve 😭 Si así sería terminaría como esta historia seria otro el resultado, no es así, lo saquean todo no hay una empresa peruana de gran minería todos son del extranjero Canadá hasta el petróleo... Aún sigo preparándome para ver crecer a mi país, la generación que viene con otra mentalidad, solucionemos estos problemas de negocio... Respetar a todo nos hace humanos...
WOW! This was an unexpected emotional ride, something about this boy won my heart instantly! The greedy slime ball got played like he deserved. What an excellent job by all!!
This is a superior movie. It will be never get the recognition it needs, yet the raw emotions that are exemplified really made me think about the troubles people in different levels of the same area of life go through and the struggle for those who want to make the right decisions. Thank you for everyone involved with this movie. Great job!!
There is no wealth bigger than the love for family and child. At end, Oliver understood there wouldn't be any riches, which could bring him closer to the wealth he already had at home waiting for him, his wife and children. Deep very deep!.
Thank you for showing us where greed ends, and that at the spot of realization little corrections can still have much effect even after a wrong has been greedily done.
I love it mostly when movies like this portray great reality lessons people can learn from. Corporate greed leads to the destruction of human lives and environments. This kind of situation especially happens to developing countries, where owners of the land get nothing and still lack basic services like health, schools , etc. Excellent movie
(English below) . . . Esta película grita en vos alta con autenticidad. La gente y donde vive es como lo es el Perú. En esta película, Perú no necesitaba un diseñador de vestuario, maquilladores, o un director de casting; Perú proveía todo: crudo, simple y verdadero. Los nombres y rostros, la clara enunciación que es típica incluso de los campesinos peruanos, especialmente de los cuzqueños, marcan a estas personas y a su país como estén en la vida real. ENGLISH: When my adopted daughter, a Cuzqueña from Huayapata en La Convención, was overheard talking to a vendor in a market in Cali, Colombia, people silently gathered around in awe to listen to her. It was then that I knew that what I had read about people from Cuzco was true: Cuzqueños now speak the purest and earliest Spanish--as the Spaniards spoke 500 years before. It is clear, easy to understand, and grammatically correct.
Remarkable! The techniques were all there and more. Well done! Great job to cast and crew. An eye opener to every developing country especially Africa. This indeed is a Noble Prize Winner for Peace and Economic Emancipation. Love from Nigeria.
That was a very touching story. I usually don't like reading subtitles; however, this movie was so compelling, I could not turn away. Well done with great actors.
What an exquisitely crafted, heart rending film! (It's rather a shame to describe it as a thriller, drama; 'thriller' may discourage potential viewers.) The comments in response to Wood Wage are particularly touching. SPOILER ALERT: Yes, we're all aware of corporate greed as a massive, destructive global evil. Yes, we all love a story about someone taking an honourable stand. But how many of us are prepared to scrutinise ourselves when it comes to selfishness? The most appalling action in the story was that of the woman, worse still a nurse, prioritising an elderly person over a child. Unless it was an error in the plot .... Doctors and/or Codes of Medical Practice distinguish between elective procedures and emergencies. No patient or family member could prevail against ethical practice. Nonetheless, this beautiful film will remain in my heart forever!
I think the nurse prioritized her mother, her blood, over the boy, who survived, minus a leg. She wasn't prioritizing "an elderly person," but her mother, big difference. This was of course mirrored by the same greed of the businessman, which a cracked opened for one to become a mensch in the end. You're right, who stands up when the pressure is intense to lose so much, is hard to judge. Surprised this film got such harsh reviews which I read. Loved it.
Let's see. There is Oliver, who carelessly waives aside human suffering for profit, Scaravedo, happy to lie to the whole village (when has mining ever made live better for indigenous people?) and of course Nathan, portraying corporate evil at its best. All of these made decisions that will cause real pain and damage way beyond one lost leg, and with nothing but profit for justification. I find it really hard to understand how the poor nurse's choice gets elected as "the most appalling action". Especially, because there are no guarantees for her. The surgeon might operate later on her mother, but also the tide might change. She is in a extremely vulnerable position and I wish such choices on no one. It is specifically the "corporate greed" that you shove aside so nonchalantly which creates an abundance of situations like this. But this we are used to, so it hits less hard than an innocent person making a heart-breaking choice she clearly feels awful for. For further information about systems which produce this kind of violence feel free to google "structural violence"
I think the nurse's choice to prioritize her mom over the boy drives home the point that she had leverage over the doctor, the power of that leverage, the way the system of corruption works. Otherwise, the doctor would have prioitized the boy.
Beautiful story line it's just amazing how this movie throws light on every aspect of life and good news here, the signed paper agreeing to sell his land was giving back to him. what a great movie!
Wow,! What an amazing movie. We are all intertwined and connected. Our actions effect everyone. It a domino effect. So nice to see a movie with a purpose. It is never too late to do the right thing!
Yes. Its attitude too late. What difference can i possibly make. All the people who changed worlds paradigm or at least shook it to its core staryed out alone. I live my life bec i KNOW GOD WATCHING ALL AND I EANT HIM TO BE PROUD OF THIS SOUL WHO KNOWS HAS SEEN HIM LOVES HIM WITH ALL HER HEART SOUL .

Dolorosa como lo es la vida para mucha gente manipulada por la vileza de los poderes dominantes enfermos de codicia. Ojalá haya siempre alguien con un poco de luz para equilibrar en parte esta balanza con peso tan desigual. Gran película. Grandes actuaciones. Gracias por compartirla.
Thank you so much for the beautiful film about the people and country where I’ve left part of my heart, having been there three times in the past ten years. The scenery- especially the Altiplano- is stunning. ❤️
Qué gran película. Cuando la enfermera dijo "estoy cansada de esperar", mostró las consecuencias de la impaciencia y de no considerar el dolor y las necesidades de los demás. Había mucho que aprender de esta película, especialmente sobre la codicia de las grandes corporaciones.
No lo veo como impaciencia ya que a la hija se le había negado repetidamente el cuidado de su madre y había recurrido a chantajear al médico para obtener la cirugía necesaria. Los detalles de la situación del niño, no se describieron como una emergencia urgente o lo que podría implicar el resultado de su espera. Pero después de todo es una película y esa decisión no habría sido suya. I do not see it as impatience since the daughter had repeatedly been denied care for her mother and had resorted to blackmailing the doctor to get the surgery needed. The details of the child's situation, were not described as an urgent emergency or what the outcome of his waiting could entail. But after all it is a movie and that decision would not have been hers to make.
@@divalivingston1664 fue una impaciencia pues ella podía esperar que el cirujano operará al niño y luego a su madre era una cuestión de urgencia lo de la madre no .
TAMBIEN SE VE UN HOMBRE DE BUENOS SENTIMIENTOS, DEVOLVIO LA CARTA FIRMADA. EN CUANTO A LA MADRE DE LA ENFERMERA, PIENSO QUE FUE EGOISTA PORQUE LA CIRUGIA SOLO SE RETRASARIA UNAS HORAS....BELLA PELICULA.
Lifes always comes first before wealth. Anyway the man whos supposed to buy has a good heart and rich people as like father itself. This was great movie. Thank you
I got mad, sad, happy, royally PO'd, cried and so much more during this movie. Very good movie and shows the true selfishness of humanity and the green monster Greed. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
It has always come down to this in history when ever shrewd businessmen acquiring land for profit are motivated by greed rather than human values. Seeing how the buyer of the land in this movie made his offer to the residents by promising them better earnings and a better way of life for them if they sold to him and later on in the movie noticing that he had no intention of keeping his promise for their well-being made his closing statement towards the end of the movie totally redundant when the man said that he was shrewd but that he would never ever take a human iife (kill anyone), when in fact he was being shrewd by choosing his words to furthering his business efforts in obtaining control of the desired land.
God bless the producers, the script writer and the actors. When films like this are made, then there is still hope for mankind. Not a typical block buster or Hollywood produce, but this one deserves a noble prize for peace. The pace of the movie, the music, the acting, the editing and cutting . . . just perfect. Thank you in the name of humanity. And greetings to all from Germany.

Phenomenal movie! Great writing, great acting, great camerawork, great directing, just one complete work. Its time there were a LOT more Hispanic/American collaborations. There are so many compelling storylines one can weave. That little boy should get an Oscar!
We
Some of us were brought up from childhood in a ruthless world but learned quickly that love a compassion are more important. However children born into privelege never experienced this and after university studies they would become ruthless and difficult to change as entitlement was all they knew.Thank you Peru and whoever made this movie. An excellent example of how to save the world. Great acting too.
I got emotionally involved in this movie. May God deliver us from the love of money. When movies become realistic than idealistic. It's great when movies teaches us life lessons and shows us reality. Thank you for this movie
It is true of the journey of humanity
Damn! Was not expecting to hug the tissue box. Hardest hit was when the father took to the pen not even knowing in detail what he's signing because his son's life was all that mattered. 😭 I think the nugget should've been included in the envelope. Great cast and cinematography. I also enjoyed listening to the dialect of the high mountain region and scenery of that land is breathtaking. Must visit Peru one day! Thank so much for this upload!
so heart-touching moments when he asks what this says,,.
@@honeyonairraja surely a moment that showed the father's illiteracy which took me by storm because it reminded me of my parents who never had a chance at education. Heart-touching moment indeed in the movie.
Quechua, the beautiful indigenous language of Peru! What an extraordinary and touching movie!
I thought the same, but how would he have known it was from his land? Maybe that’s why they didn’t put it in? I’ve spent time with the Quechua and they wouldn’t have done anything with the gold anyway, they don’t like anything to do with the government. They are also very simple people and don’t want or need anything that comes with that sort of thing.
Watching this movie because of your comment, hopefully I can relate
The movie carefully portrays Corporation's exploitation of the farmers, human's greed, frustration for delayed medical treatment, indigenous people loving their own land, love for the children and above all realising a mistake and turning away from it..
Great movie!!!
Yes, this was so excellent. I remember thinking how poignant these tragedies were to each of the people involved. I could feel the effects of the story as it unfolded, knowing that the truth was being told. One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. We need more representation of the human dilemmas we have to face and how choices are made, sometime good and sometimes not, sometimes for oneself and sometimes for others.
Tell me what offers those people for the whole country??? they had those lands for long time and they never changed the landscape,, never produced richness for them or the country,,, they just worked for surviving not for the interest of other,,, its time to leave those lands for those who make money and pay taxes for the government makes school hospital etc and create services that your country will never have if you don't sacrifice your resources.
The other way to create wellness in the population is by putting your brain at work,, but those people never do at least that,,, so when you defend those people you don't know what is the tradition of their life,,, let me tell you,,, turn the money in alcohol, turn the money in coca leave, turn the money in saving which never turn into shopping so the money in bad hands becomes trash,,, the consumers make the money into life for those who work.... I am sick and tired of those social fighters who defend the people they don't know
@@patriziapatrish I agree. And thanks for your respectful comment. In other cases I could have received and insult. We have different perspectives and its só difficult tô think as one, but the Society sometimes fight itself for something they dont know
@@MartinFRRojas well taken and understood. ✌️
It always happens in my India. I belong to eastern part of India , this state is rich in minerals & resources. Coal mines, iron ores , uranium, bauxite - there are many mines & industries which was built on indigenous people’s . These people lost their lands , they were exploited by corporate sharks 😭
It’s crazy how money (greed) can take someone down a dark rabbit hole. Most of us don’t see what is behind the scenes when it comes to land, government, money, and how it affects lives.
Excellently written and produced.
We need to start thinking before we sign something, There are a few multi- Billionaires, while millions starve, I pray humanity wakes up and starts working together, and loving one another, great movie, love to everyone.
It's called the deep state cabal
Speak for yourself, hunny...some of us are pretty knowledgeable about these things ...
People got a jelous about money
😞 ingles
A rare and thought-provoking film. Beautifully evokes the harsh realities of rural Peruvian life, and also the triumph of the human spirit over greed and corruption.
I totally related to this. This is the story of Africa too. Exploited for its resources
Hello, Afric. How are you doing today?
الجشع في كل مكان
Sbagliato il male vince sempre... Purtroppo....
I had tears in my eyes. I love the acting and the plot of this movie. Great job, worth watching
So touching and thought provocative . This movie had it all, compassion, sacrifice, profound love for one’s identity, it exposed the greed of foreign investors in the developing world and their disregard for the human values of the indigenous people!
Then there was Maria, going to any length to save her mother. Thanks for uploading, we need more of such movies.
A beautiful film...! I was moved to tears and what a screenplay delivered by all..!
This is one movie that a tear flowed freely from my eye. Sad and educative too, how humanity still wins. The movie of the Year it should be.
this is a true movie with a real story : never give up on your integrity at any price
The dad had it in spades.
An excellent movie that must be seen by big corporations! It makes me sick when a greedy corporation tries to grab and acquire acres of land from indigenous people! A great movie that depicts that love, consideration, sympathy, care, utmost understanding of people's feelings and positive perceptions still prevail! Thank you for uploading this great movie for people around the world to learned from!
Recommended! Made in 2013. IMDB shows 2015 release. Robert Pugsley said it right: "Slow to the middle, all areas getting set. The second half, all the areas come together." Good acting from everyone. 1.5 hours of my time well spent.
I love the ending, this is so beautiful, realizing it was a poor family, thanks that you changed your minds
When the father sign the paper agreeing to sell his land for the sake of his son..I almost cried. 😢
A sad reality of life that is happening in this real world way before and now. The best story.
Long time ago, in the Soviet Union, they put an end to this suffering...unfortunately, the human nature prevail...
YES and how many are suffering right here in the gold old USA, because our healthcare is for profit !! The 1% would not shed a tear! Death and suffering for profit, makes me vomit!
@@vera98021 That's so sad to hear. A lot of countries have no health care benefits. Even ours here. 😥
Agree, looking at his hands, looks as if his been working since childhood just to keep his home to have to sell it for the life of his boy 😢😭😭😭😭
@@vera98021 -- if you knew the in if the affordable act, you would vomit 🤮🤢 ten times over!! The brand name insurance carriers are racking in the Hugh profits, and the working class paying for it, to benefit the 1%!!! 🤬😤😡☹️😠😤 It's ugly 99% don't even know what's really going on with that program it's probably best, they would just live in distress, not being able to change anything!!! This is one of Obama HUGH PAY OUTS, HIS MAKING MILLIONS OFF THIS DEAL HE CREATED, FOR THE 1%.
Tears in my eyes when the man handed the letter to the nurse. The writer has a compassionate heart.
All teary and all... how the boy was so passionate about locating the lost animal, how he was so interested in the flying chopper, the woman's passion about her mother's health, the friend that was always there taking care of her ailing mum...gosh this is a must watch!
@Liam Neeson am great. Hope you are well too.
Cheers 🥂 to us who enjoy reading comments before watching the movie
Cheers😂
i do. comments first before settling down for the uplifting moments. thank you for uploading insprstional movies that leave us profound redeeming values.
Better than watching a trailer sometimes
After all, usually one reads critics before buying into any show.
Value for money, so to say.😊
this is absolutely stupid and a joke. it is not in English. I am very saddened to know that I let myself get duped into this piece of crap.
What a great movie. When the nurse said "I'm tired of waiting," it showed the consequences of impatience and not considering the pain and needs of others. There was so much to learn from this movie, especially the greediness of big corporations.
I thought that scene showed her having the presence of mind to stand strong in her conviction and not buckle to outside pressure.
Dr trys to kill the child, he was expecting make a surgery on a 75 woman!!!
Yes, this movie was so beautiful because of the many layers of complex emotions and consequences. I felt the nurse had compassion for the boy. She acted she acted out of love for her mother but was not indifferent to the fact that she was putting the boy at risk. Her love for her mother was as deep, real as the farmer's love for his son. She felt relief and gratitude for her mother's recovery while at the same time feeling pain for the boy's injury. Her choice was not rooted in self absorption/self centeredness, nor stubbornness, nor indifference to the boy she didn't know... it was love. We saw her struggle with the decision, but in the end, she simply loved her mother too much to see her suffer any more. We saw that the nurse understood the consequence of her decision and chose to see it with open eyes, will carry the weight of what happened to the boy, because her heart filled with love. Life isn't easy, or black and white, when you live having compassion and empathy for others in addition to trying to take care of yourself and those you love. It was beautiful to see the transformation of the land dealer, he finally saw the reality around him.
@@seanhammer6296 possibly; however, she will forever be haunted by the fact that she is the reason why this young boy lost his leg. I understand about her mother, as I too, was a caregiver for my mom for over a decade. One more day would not have matter, as her mom could have taken more pain medication. Granted, not ideal,; however, she was finally in the hospital under a Dr's care. Yet, I don't understand, her Dr could perform only one surgery a day? No more Drs or because it's socialist medicine, as surgeries are rationed?
@@donnabacon4681 SHE will be forever haunted? I think you are putting yourself in her place.😊 You bring up a good point about only one surgery per day.
Greed has been the greatest undoing in the world but it's good to know there is still hope for humanity. Great lessons and great acting by the cast.
Empathy,Valor, strength of character. What a splendid last ACT. A superb movie. Thank you.
What a gem of a movie-and what an understatement, too! An impressively clever plot that evolves from seemingly incoherent at first and gradually gels over the message that human perception and judgment is incapable of reaching beyond the limitations of the simplistic individual's grasp without figuring in other parties, regardless of culture or status. Not flattering, but factual. An astute analysis of the self-perpetuating origins of conflict among our kind and a very difficult message to bring across plainly and convincingly in a feature lenght movie without appearing artificial, patronizing or otherwise stilted.
A beautiful, extraordinary and poignant movie! An amazing cast, well acted, written and directed; thank God for the goodness in people!
What a great movie .the most touching part was the boy after seeing his amputated leg and still sayin “ I can still take care of the animals “ oh boy you’re so handsome and lovely ♥️♥️♥️
Father's love to a precious son...gave up d land he treasured most but thanks Oliver made d right decision...This is another one amazing movie, a bit dragging but unique story line. Thanks for sharing👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Omg! Thankyou for Uploading this Film it realy Touches my Heart and drops some Tears.. This is not only a Film this this a Reality life of So many People living in Poverty..
That was one of the best things he will ever do in his life. When he is 90, it will shine the brightest. He will return to his family a new man.
This was a well done movie. Heart breaking, maddening, incomprehensible. So many "if onlys".
Watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲
LOVELY movie!! When the father was signing the paper had me in tears
Also Jamaica...what a great movie!🇯🇲🇯🇲
What a beautiful movie - in all aspects. This is what being human is ultimately all about: compassion and empathy with other decent human beings.
This sure was not an ordinary movie with the usual well known 'stars' and a "cookie-cutter" script. This was powerful and gut wrenching and exposed the dark side of International development projects in 3rd world countries at the expense of the people of that country.
These unknown ( at least to me here in the U.S. ) actors showed their heart and soul and did an outstanding and believable job.
I read a book some years ago now called " Confessions Of An Economic Hitman", written by a man named John Perkins. I highly recommend getting this book. He told how he worked for these international corporations and went to these types of 3rd world countries and financed huge projects such as oil and energy projects like hydroelectric projects. When the country could not pay their debt when it was demanded by the corporations, the corporations would take over the economy of the country and the people were worse off than before.
This stuff really happens...it's not just a sad movie...it is hard core reality.
One of the reasons The US is hated by so many.
I think he changed the real story on his book to appease the government. What I know is that he worked for a corporation hired by USA government to do the dirty deed for them. How? He would travel to Central or South American countries with a briefcase filled with a million dollars. He would offer the money to corrupt presidents of some of these countries for free in exchange of selling a national or government company for at a reduced rate to american companies. If the presidents wouldn't take the money, they would come up with an attempt to kill that president. If he or they took the money, the corporations would charge them compound interest that they could never repay. Perkins regretted this later on and exposed his company and the government for these fraud and criminal extortion dealings. I think it was a president of Ecuador at the time that missed getting on his plane and a bomb went off on the flight where his life was saved by not taking the flight. Perkins exposed this on the internet because his life was threatened to get killed. He said, he did it on the internet on the open, because, if he was killed, everybody, the public, would know who was behind his death. 🤔
@@leonvillegas8035 ....That was excellent information about Perkins. I had forgotten those details...thanks for adding it..!!
How awful. How can people, be so full of shit.
People who are ugly to others deserve cancer and thousands of disease.
They should rot in hell.
It is still happening. If you look at Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Myanmar where huge projects funded by you know who are putting these countries to bankruptcy.
A rare, brilliant, humane movie...great achievement...congratulations to all who created this movie...!!
BRILLIANT. Not only a good movie, and well acted. But it brings home a critical point for Humanity: We can still have Moral Progress.
Marvellous movie with a bitter sweet ending. Glad to see that money isn’t the be all of everything 👍👍👍
Es una gran tristeza que en estos tiempos dizque de gran avance tecnológico los más necesitados sigan padeciendo la ambición de los más ricos y poderosos, excelente película.
Así es en todo los países, los gobiernos y los ricos se creen dueños de todo. Abusan de su poder. No hay que dejar que eso suceda jamás.
A hug to all those who watched this movie. Of course to those who made it. Should be seen by all politicians .
if they are politicians , means they are too far gone lol
It was emotional..😢it got me tearing 😢😢..much love from Uganda 🇺🇬
Yes, it is a cruel world that is full of love. A must-watch film, an important message.
All the beautiful comments make the producer of this beautiful movie, PROUD AND WE ARE GIVEN HIM AN OSCAR, THE WHOLE HUMANITY IS GIVEN YOU AN OSCAR. WE LOVE YOUR PRODUCTION.
A touching to the heart movie...based to true facts of life... greed, power, but still family love remains..
Brilliant movie! Great actors and we'll scripted. Like William Shakespeare said that No legacy is so rich as honesty!
I concur! ESL?
Its hard to loose the material but there are still humans on this earth who care humans rather than the material. Very excellent movie. Congrats to the team.
great movie , well worth the watch , all farmers /land owners should watch this ! don't let big biz buy your freedom
Una película basada en la realidad de nuestro Perú con más educación en cada hogar podemos mejorar nuestra patria

Where originally are you writing from?
such a good movie, deep, clever, touching, reflecting sad realities. Excellent actors. The long moments of silence are worth more than hours of speech.
Stephen Dorff is an underrated Hollywood actor. In my own opinion, he always get the character in every film he does. This is one of the films by which he nailed the character of a hedge fund banker named Oliver. Kudos!
Lots of twists and turns. In the end, it all comes together. Very well done. Worth the watch.
This is a powerful movie thank you. The message comes through so vividly...
The producers, the script writer and the actors, they all deserve Oscar. A reflection of the world at present in a nutshell.
Wow. Highly recommend. Many of these actors should receive an academy nominations. Thoroughly enjoyed
This was a great movie ... all about choice and the responsibilities and outcome of those choices. all lessons to learn and grow.. thankyou for this gem.
Estupendo
Extraordinary film production. The realities of big shrewd corporate industries. The lives that are affected by poverty - the struggles and various dilemma's that push individuals to choose - in the midst of the repercussions.
Lo que más me conmovió fue cuando el niño dijo: "Todavía puedo ver a los animales". Me recordó a mi hijo que perdió la vida después de 10 años de lucha. Nunca escuché a mi hijo quejarse. tan a menudo personitas perfectas, viviendo entre nosotros, aguantándonos... y no tenemos idea. Mi más profundo respeto para todos los padres que están viviendo la pesadilla de un niño que no está bien.
I can imagine this movie hits close to home in that you could relate to the father's anguish of his son's loss of part of his leg because of the insufficient medical support needed to serve the needs of many people. Me imagino que esta película es muy familiar, ya que podría relacionarse con la angustia del padre por la pérdida de parte de la pierna de su hijo debido al apoyo médico insuficiente necesario para atender las necesidades de muchas personas.
Why is this exactly the same as what Wood Wage said?
@@littlep.3079 yeah, the same in English.
@@laurenmay2098 Yes I understand. But who’s story is this or did I miss something in three movie? Who lost their child Joshua Gray or Wood Sage?
@@littlep.3079 that’s right, I think it is not true, just someone troweling, I suppose.
I just watched this movie 4.11.24 and from the middle of the movie I just cried😭😭😭 I don't like greedy-selfish people or people who abuse the poor. GREAT MOVIE. I loved the end but I'm still crying 😭. Great actors. Love Llamas. Enjoy❣️
How the Will of God´s moves the people to do Justice!!!! Great message in the movie😪
A great movie with a powerful message that realigns morals and challenges values,and reminds us that decisions have consequences . thanks

Rare demonstration of humanity, will, honesty and temple.

I was born in Peru. This movie depicts an all to cruel reality for the indigenous peoples of Peru. 😢😢
Speechless !!!! One of the best movies ever !!!!!
This is a superior movie. It will be never get the recognition it needs, yet the raw emotions that are exemplified really made me think about the troubles people in different levels of the same area of life go through and the struggle for those who want to make the right decisions. Thank you for everyone involved with this movie. Great job!!

There is no wealth bigger than the love for family and child. At end, Oliver understood there wouldn't be any riches, which could bring him closer to the wealth he already had at home waiting for him, his wife and children. Deep very deep!.
Thank you for showing us where greed ends, and that at the spot of realization little corrections can still have much effect even after a wrong has been greedily done.
Excellent film !! wonderfully interweaved plots. And the ending....makes you truly proud of the lead character,
I love this movie. Highly recomended. At the end, not everything is merely about money. There are pride, compassion and humanity
I love it mostly when movies like this portray great reality lessons people can learn from. Corporate greed leads to the destruction of human lives and environments. This kind of situation especially happens to developing countries, where owners of the land get nothing and still lack basic services like health, schools , etc.
Excellent movie
(English below) . . . Esta película grita en vos alta con autenticidad. La gente y donde vive es como lo es el Perú. En esta película, Perú no necesitaba un diseñador de vestuario, maquilladores, o un director de casting; Perú proveía todo: crudo, simple y verdadero. Los nombres y rostros, la clara enunciación que es típica incluso de los campesinos peruanos, especialmente de los cuzqueños, marcan a estas personas y a su país como estén en la vida real.
ENGLISH: When my adopted daughter, a Cuzqueña from Huayapata en La Convención, was overheard talking to a vendor in a market in Cali, Colombia, people silently gathered around in awe to listen to her. It was then that I knew that what I had read about people from Cuzco was true: Cuzqueños now speak the purest and earliest Spanish--as the Spaniards spoke 500 years before. It is clear, easy to understand, and grammatically correct.
Remarkable! The techniques were all there and more. Well done! Great job to cast and crew. An eye opener to every developing country especially Africa. This indeed is a Noble Prize Winner for Peace and Economic Emancipation. Love from Nigeria.
That was a very touching story. I usually don't like reading subtitles; however, this movie was so compelling, I could not turn away. Well done with great actors.
What an exquisitely crafted, heart rending film! (It's rather a shame to describe it as a thriller, drama; 'thriller' may discourage potential viewers.) The comments in response to Wood Wage are particularly touching. SPOILER ALERT: Yes, we're all aware of corporate greed as a massive, destructive global evil. Yes, we all love a story about someone taking an honourable stand. But how many of us are prepared to scrutinise ourselves when it comes to selfishness? The most appalling action in the story was that of the woman, worse still a nurse, prioritising an elderly person over a child. Unless it was an error in the plot .... Doctors and/or Codes of Medical Practice distinguish between elective procedures and emergencies. No patient or family member could prevail against ethical practice. Nonetheless, this beautiful film will remain in my heart forever!
I think the nurse prioritized her mother, her blood, over the boy, who survived, minus a leg. She wasn't prioritizing "an elderly person," but her mother, big difference. This was of course mirrored by the same greed of the businessman, which a cracked opened for one to become a mensch in the end. You're right, who stands up when the pressure is intense to lose so much, is hard to judge. Surprised this film got such harsh reviews which I read. Loved it.
Let's see. There is Oliver, who carelessly waives aside human suffering for profit, Scaravedo, happy to lie to the whole village (when has mining ever made live better for indigenous people?) and of course Nathan, portraying corporate evil at its best. All of these made decisions that will cause real pain and damage way beyond one lost leg, and with nothing but profit for justification. I find it really hard to understand how the poor nurse's choice gets elected as "the most appalling action".
Especially, because there are no guarantees for her. The surgeon might operate later on her mother, but also the tide might change. She is in a extremely vulnerable position and I wish such choices on no one.
It is specifically the "corporate greed" that you shove aside so nonchalantly which creates an abundance of situations like this. But this we are used to, so it hits less hard than an innocent person making a heart-breaking choice she clearly feels awful for.
For further information about systems which produce this kind of violence feel free to google "structural violence"
A film of reality
I think the nurse's choice to prioritize her mom over the boy drives home the point that she had leverage over the doctor, the power of that leverage, the way the system of corruption works. Otherwise, the doctor would have prioitized the boy.

Dolorosa como lo es la vida para mucha gente manipulada por la vileza de los poderes dominantes enfermos de codicia. Ojalá haya siempre alguien con un poco de luz para equilibrar en parte esta balanza con peso tan desigual. Gran película. Grandes actuaciones. Gracias por compartirla.
Thank you so much for the beautiful film about the people and country where I’ve left part of my heart, having been there three times in the past ten years. The scenery- especially the Altiplano- is stunning. ❤️
Hello, Penny. How are you doing today?
Qué gran película. Cuando la enfermera dijo "estoy cansada de esperar", mostró las consecuencias de la impaciencia y de no considerar el dolor y las necesidades de los demás. Había mucho que aprender de esta película, especialmente sobre la codicia de las grandes corporaciones.
No lo veo como impaciencia ya que a la hija se le había negado repetidamente el cuidado de su madre y había recurrido a chantajear al médico para obtener la cirugía necesaria. Los detalles de la situación del niño, no se describieron como una emergencia urgente o lo que podría implicar el resultado de su espera. Pero después de todo es una película y esa decisión no habría sido suya. I do not see it as impatience since the daughter had repeatedly been denied care for her mother and had resorted to blackmailing the doctor to get the surgery needed. The details of the child's situation, were not described as an urgent emergency or what the outcome of his waiting could entail. But after all it is a movie and that decision would not have been hers to make.
@@divalivingston1664 fue una impaciencia pues ella podía esperar que el cirujano operará al niño y luego a su madre era una cuestión de urgencia lo de la madre no .
TAMBIEN SE VE UN HOMBRE DE BUENOS SENTIMIENTOS, DEVOLVIO LA CARTA FIRMADA. EN CUANTO A LA MADRE DE LA ENFERMERA, PIENSO QUE FUE EGOISTA PORQUE LA CIRUGIA SOLO SE RETRASARIA UNAS HORAS....BELLA PELICULA.
Absolutely 💯
Salvar a una vieja chiva no vale la pierna de un nino.
Only such cinema can be called art. Great job! Needs no f... Oscars! I give my respect and love to all, who made the movie!
Lifes always comes first before wealth. Anyway the man whos supposed to buy has a good heart and rich people as like father itself. This was great movie. Thank you
A good movie
I got mad, sad, happy, royally PO'd, cried and so much more during this movie. Very good movie and shows the true selfishness of humanity and the green monster Greed.
⭐⭐⭐⭐
It has always come down to this in history when ever shrewd businessmen acquiring land for profit are motivated by greed rather than human values. Seeing how the buyer of the land in this movie made his offer to the residents by promising them better earnings and a better way of life for them if they sold to him and later on in the movie noticing that he had no intention of keeping his promise for their well-being made his closing statement towards the end of the movie totally redundant when the man said that he was shrewd but that he would never ever take a human iife (kill anyone), when in fact he was being shrewd by choosing his words to furthering his business efforts in obtaining control of the desired land.
