an explorer film.
this spanish looking conquistador sets off through south/central america with his band of cronies. he's got a priest, 2 girls, a black slave and some indigenous guides with him. basically, they become lost and the whole movie is them losing people due to attacks of tribes and disease.
the version that I watched was in german with english subtitles, but the actors' mouths didn't look like they were speaking german. the video quality looked great. I would have thought it was a 1990s video if I didn't see the date. the audio qualm that I had was they had a flute or pipe player with them and he was the least creative musician I have ever heard. he only played 1 tune each of the 3-4 times that he played his pipes. it was the same song each time. they may have only gotten rights to use that 1 piece for the pipe player's music.
this was worth watching. it was tragic, but kind of interesting. you might want to watch this movie if you get a chance.
