Political films fail
to shed much light
The pro
ducers of
“When The
Mountains
T remble"
and
"Nicaragu
a: Report
From The Front" have
something to say, but they say
it with overbearing
righteousness.
"When The Mountains
Tremble" is an uneasy mix of
fiction, docu-drama and
documentary in which the
results are less than perfect.
The "fiction" is used for
pure emotional appeal. A
young Guatemalan woman
tells the story of her family and
her country in first person.
Ffer comments open and close
the film, and are interspersed
throughout.
The body of the film retells
Guatemala's history. Th° film
makers present dramatic
recreations, news footage and
on-camera interviews with
peasants, guerrilla fighters,
and government and church
officials from both Guatemala
and the US. Some of this
footage is telling and power
ful, but too much of it is
geared to elicit an emotional
response.
At 80 minutes, this film
presents very little factual in
formation. The fiction actually
impedes the success of this
quasi-documentary. A presen
tation of the facts would make
it much more effective. As it is,
the film sounds preachy and
self-righteous.
“Nicaragua: Report From
The Front" is more successful.
Only 30 minutes long, it offers
a look at the problems in
Nicaragua by mixing inter
views of Nicaraguan citizens
with those of the American
backed Contras. Although the
film is heavily weighted to the
side of the Nicaraguans, the
comments of the Contras are
enlightening.
Neither of the films makes
any pretense at objectivity,
which is fine. They are both in
tensely manipulative,
however, especially “When
the Mountains." Many of the
interviews are translated on
the soundtrack rather than
with subtitles, and the
translating voices are by no
means impartial. The good
guys' voices come over the
soundtrack in an easy and
friendly manner, while the
government officials and con
servative church leaders are
translated pompously.
Though thin, these films do
have some very important
things to say. The way that
they say them is something
else, however.
Both play until May 25 at the
Bijou.
