Latin American films provide the central focus for Latin Pulse this week. The program completes its two-part conversation on the film Olvidados, which recounts Operation Condor and its human rights abuses from a Bolivian perspective. The program also reviews the top Brazilian film of the past year, The Second Mother. The news segment of the program delves into the controversy between the new National Assembly in Venezuela and that country’s Supreme Court over accusations of electoral fraud and the power politics behind the swearing in of three new members of the National Assembly.
The program includes in-depth interviews with:
Carla Ortiz, the producer of Olvidados; and
Kathy Corley of Webster University.
