''Angel Face'' ((スペイン語:La cara del ángel)) is a 1998 Argentine film, written and directed by Pablo Torre. The film features Virginia Innocenti, Mario Pasik, Enrique Pinti, among others.〔.〕 The director, Pablo Torre, dedicated the film to the approximately 30,000 people who "disappeared" during Argentina's military dictatorship between 1976 and 1983.〔Deming, Mark. .〕 ==Plot== The story takes place during the period of the ruling military ''junta'' in Argentina from the mid-seventies to the early eighties, focusing on one particular family. The story is told from the viewpoint of Nicolas, a young boy. By mistake the mother of the family is killed by right-wing extremists because they believe she had photographed a civilian protest march and the violent suppression by a military patrol in Buenos Aires. In fact, her twin sister actually took the pictures. She recognized its leader as the father of her nephew and she shows the pictures to her sister. One day while the sister is out, the man shows up with his political thugs and murders the mother and then hunts for Nicolas who hides inside a large grandfather clock. Nicolas (Mario Pasik) is soon taken by his aunt to her home in the country, where he attends the local Catholic school, where most of the children's parents are in the military. At the school the fascist bullies and kids who are frightened by them offer a parallel to Argentina's political situation at the time. The boys imitate their parents with dirty tricks toward a boy they call a ''mixto'' (born from a marriage of Jews and Christians) who they regularly beat and torment. Nicolas develops a friendship with the mixto and confides in him about what happened to his mother. A few years later, after the mixto has been taken away, Nicolas and the other bullies take part in the Malvinas/Falklands War. Afterward, Nicolas settles an old, old score. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Angel Face (1998 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
