This is a beautifully wrought account of the dawning of the social conscience of one of the 20th centuries most romanticized revolutionaries. Brazilian director Walter Salles, filmed in Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Brazil and Venezuela to recreate the 8 month trip through South America taken in 1952 which opened the eyes of a 23 year old Argentine medical student who would become the charismatic Che. The film makes rich use of its beautiful location. It is a revelation of intelligent and artful story telling without being politically didactic and reveals a humanity found in few movies. Part of the Reel Classics Film Series.

Reviewed as one of the most interesting American independent films to come out of this year’s Sundance Film Festival, Frozen River is the story of Ray Eddy, a struggling upstate New York mom who is lured into the world of illegal immigrant smuggling when she meets a Mohawk girl who lives on a reservation that straddles the US-Canadian border. Broke after her husband takes off with the down payment for their new home, Ray reluctantly teams up with Lila, a smuggler, and the two begin making runs across the frozen St. Lawrence River carrying illegal Chinese and Pakistani immigrants in the trunk of Ray's car. This is an intense and unique look at the lives of two enthralling characters.
