Here's an intriguing movie to add to your "Must See" list (or, if you live in the middle of a cultural desert like me, your "Must Rent on DVD list!):
Chicha tu Madre, Gianfranco Quattrini's picturesque comedy, actually uses tarot cards to narrate its tale of fate, free will and chance. As Cesar, a taxi driver and amateur tarot card reader, races around Lima trying to take advantage of opportunity that comes his way, the Peruvian city's bright colors and unique spirit inspire him to push on.
Want more? Check out the movie's really cool website for a bizarre multimedia experience. (Oh, and don't go around shouting this movie's title in your local Mexican grocery; as slang goes, it's about as vulgar as you can get!)
