One of the best films i have seen

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This is a truly excellent film that tries to recreate the true account of what happened when an Anarchist Union tried to improve conditions for the rural workers in Patagonia, Argentina.If you're at all familiar with the history of Anarchism in Argentina then you will like this film. However, if you're not, you'll enjoy the film just the same, no ideological knowledge is required here to understand that this is a great film. The film depicts the idealism of the workers who made demands such as the right not to work in the rain and small pay increases for themselves. However, the bosses renege on after initially agreeing to workers demands, and then the government, under pressure from the British, allow the army to come in and massacre hundreds of workers, torturing them and even forcing many to dig their own graves. I would recommend this film for anyone interested in social justice.

'La patagonia rebelde' recreates the story of some workers of the patagonia farms trying to get better conditions of work from his patrons, inflated by a couple of socialist men that arrived to this town at the bordering of the world. While the story could be typical, the development isn't. It is based on true facts, and the final is one of the most chilling moments I've remember to see in a movie. A very good movie, great script and great acting.9/10
