Mi Mejor Enemigo...

Hi Everyone!

Today I Would like to talk to you about a movie that I really like, and in my opinion everybody should see it.

Keeping with the patriotic subject, I would like to talk to you about: “Mi Mejor Enemigo”.

This is a chilean/ argentine/spanish movie opened  in 2005, directed by the Chilean director Alex Bowen. It stars Nicolás Saavedra, Erto Pantoja and Felipe Braun (Chilean actors)

This film tells the story of a 5 man Chilean patrol lost in Patagonia during the Beagle conflict of December 1978. The patrol becomes lost and builds a trench in the middle of the Patagonian plains only to discover that there is an Argentine trench in front of them. The Argentine group is also lost and unsure of the actual location of the country's border. The story is set during a period in which war seems imminent, and portrays these two groups interacting in ways both friendly and conflictive (hence the title of the movie).

I saw this movie with my older sister in Curico`s cinema a 7 years ago , because she was studying History in college and one of her friends recommends it to her. When we saw it we found that the movie doesn’t talk just about historic events (we thought it was about that), It talks about the fraternity, the fights the troubles that appears when you are alone and in war, and obviously in a place that you don’t know and is the last place on earth.

I really like that beyond the war, the mans that fitght were humans, having troubles, having fun, getting suffer. And, after all they help each other because there’s no one there beside themselves, and they found that they were fighting a war that doesn’t belong to themes.

Also I really like the movie, because I fall in love with the protagonist of the movie (Nicolás Saavedra) aajajjajaja , but was just a passenger love.
