‘El bien esquivo’ {The Elusive Good} 


With a careful recreation of colonial Peru in the XVII century, “El bien esquivo / “the elusive good” tells the story of the social, racial and spiritual marginality of the two tormented characters in a key moment of Peruvian history, when national identity is defining its parameters. The mixture of bloods and cultures, the struggle between conflicting religious beliefs, but also adventure, romance and intrigue combine in the story of two outcasts fighting against prejudice and intolerance.

PVR RARE | ‘Bel Ami’

Bel Ami is the story of Georges Duroy, who travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden garrets to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where sex is power and celebrity an obsession. — (C) Magnolia
