DVD. 92 min. Color. Directed by Mariano Barrioso. In English w/English & Spanish subtitles. Tells the real-life story of the Mirabal sisters, courageous revolutionaries known covertly as las Mariposas ("the Butterflies"). The sisters' years of dissent during the Trujillo dictatorship in the Dominican Republic led to their eventual murder in 1960, a brutal crime that signaled the beginning of the end for Trujillo. Told through the eyes of Minerva Mirabal (Salma Hayek), the story follows a somewhat predictable plot line as the sisters progress rapidly from naive to idealistic to victimized and on to resolved as they become leaders in an elaborate plot to assassinate the dictator. As with so many biographical depictions on film, even though this one is based on a highly acclaimed novel by Julia Alvarez, the narrative shifts from past to present are clumsy and excessively sepia-toned; the script delivers its life-was-better-before-sequence with little to no grace before quickly connecting the dots of history. Nevertheless, Edward James Olmos, as Trujillo, does a remarkable job of conveying the unique mixture of political intuition and ruthlessness needed to maintain a dictatorship for 30 years, while Hayek delivers a spirited lead performance.

Directed by Rigoberto Proud midwife of revolution, tropical chaos, cradle of Afro-Caribbean culture, and environmental disaster, Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti is a complex and multifaceted city. This film portrays the city in all its complexity, using interviews with intellectuals, officials, and ordinary people, scenes from the city?s vibrant street life, grandly dilapidated architecture, and stories of the crises engendered by Port-Au-Prince?s population explosion. Founded in 1749, the city soon had 10 thousand inhabitants. By the end of the 19th century, it had 60,000. Although it was the capital, Port-Au-Prince was still a bit of a sleepy small town ? the southern city of Jacmel had electricity before Port-Au-Prince. Emerging from a long U.S. occupation, the city was at its artistic zenith as a center for Afro-Caribbean aesthetic culture in the 1950s. But the rise of the Duvalier dictatorship and the subsequent lack of investment in the countryside brought waves of peasant migration into the city, and the population exploded from 150,000 to a staggering 2.5 million within a period of 50 years. Many of the new residents recreated vibrant Haitian peasant culture amidst the drab backdrop of hastily constructed shantytowns. The rapid proliferation of these neighborhoods, and the flight of the elite further and further up the mountains surrounding the city has led to an environmental crisis of disastrous proportions for Port-Au-Prince residents already subject to poverty, unemployment, lack of education, health problems, street crime, and political uncertainty. PORT-AU-PRINCE IS MINE depicts the daily life of ordinary residents of this beleaguered city in all its complex melancholy, uncertainty, and optimism. While some people are resigned, others have responded with hard work, creativity, stoicism, and hope for the future. The site of the world?s first free black republic, the stories of Haiti and Port-au-Prince are the stories of a dream stillborn, but through which the ingenuity and cultural integrity of the Haitian people have always found a way to survive.

Oscar winner for Best Foreign Language Film, is part cold-case mystery, part long-lost love story, and part thriller set both in the present and in 1970s Argentina, under the tight control of its infamous military dictatorship. Director Juan José Campanella manages to tread easily across these genres with a story that's gripping, a little outlandish, and compelling--if full of a growing sense of dread. The Secret in Their Eyes stars as Benjamin, a policeman who gets pulled into investigating a decades-old crime, and becomes drawn in, almost against his will, as layers of information about the missing (murdered?) girl slowly come to light. As Benjamin investigates, he runs into a woman for whom he has long carried a torch, Irene (Soledad Villamil), an ambitious judge who had also at one point been involved in adjudicating the old crime. The chemistry between Benjamin and Irene is part of the "secret in their eyes," as the pull between the old colleagues becomes palpable. But also palpable is the hold that this unsolved crime has over Benjamin--a creepy borderline obsession that is reminiscent of the American film noir classic Laura. Fancy cinematography and well-crafted flashbacks to the era of the crime--set against the backdrop of the military dictatorship--add extra depth to what is a truly original story, told in layers with great intelligence.
