other title: La nave de los locos / 愚人船
In a small town in Patagonia (Southern Argentina), a Mapuche Indian chief sets a tourist complex under construction on fire. He denies all attempts to defend himself. Locked up, he waits for the arrival of "Caleuche," the Ship (Nave) of Fools (de los locos), a mythical figure of his ancestral strength which "made" him start the fire. An appointed lawyer (a white woman) comes to the chief's defence, alleging the chief had acted in self-defense as the white man was building commercial structures on the sacred burial grounds of his ancestors, and continued doing so even after heated protests.

Mercedes Sosa: free like a bird (1983)
Mercedes Sosa: como un pájaro libre Douban
other title: 像鸟一样自由:索萨纪事 / Mercedes Sosa: como un pájaro libre
Documentary on several of Mercedes Sosa's performances at different places in the country, and the revival of popular music in the early '80s. The Argentine folk singer Mercedes Sosa was banned in her native land for many years because of her stance against totalitarianism, yet her excellent voice and popular songs kept her name alive and gave her a worldwide reputation. When the ban was lifted she came back to Argentina and sang in soccer stadiums because no other arena was large enough to hold the cheering, chanting crowds. Other than scenes from these concerts, this documentary includes interviews with Sosa and clips of her working in the recording studio and answering reporters' questions at press conferences.
