FILM INFO: Don Plutarco, his son Genaro and his grandson, Lucio live a double life. They are musicians and humble farmers, but they also support the campesina peasant guerilla movement's armed efforts against the oppressive government. When the military seizes the village, the rebels flee to the sierra hills, and are forced to leave behind their stock of ammunition. While the guerillas organize a counter-attack, old Plutarco executes his own plan. He plays up his appearance as a harmless violin player, in order to get into the village and recover the ammunition hidden in his corn field. His violin playing charms the army captain, who orders Plutarco to come back daily. Arms and music play a tenuous game of cat-and-mouse which ultimately results in painful betrayal. The Violin is the most internationally awarded Mexican film in history, and is the winner of three Ariel awards, the Mexican equivalent of an Oscar. [2005, Runtime: 98 min., Not rated, but recommended for mature audiences, with English subtitles]

FILM INFO: Flik, a misfit, inventor ant is tired of the gang of freeloading grasshoppers who steal food and provisions from every bug colony in the land, rather than working to harvest their own food like all the other bugs. On behalf of oppressed bugs everywhere, resourceful Flik hires warrior bugs to defend his colony. Unfortunately, Flik's cavalry turns out to be a ragtag group of flea circus performers. Through teamwork, determination, and a little bit of comic confusion, the tiny army perseveres, and unlikely heroes are born! [1998, Runtime: 96 min., Rated: G, animated]
