Summary

This is the first feature film made in Nicaragua. It is a revolutionary fable on the clashes resulting from U.S. involvement in Latin America. These conflicts are presented through the eyes of Alsino, a 12-year-old boy who witnesses oppression and revolution and dreams of flying. His fantasy provides the central metaphor of a land fighting for self-determination. (Does not circulate)
