One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
A young boy, in an effort to have a normal childhood in 1980's El Salvador, is caught up in a dramatic fight for his life as he desperately tries to avoid the war which is raging all around him.
"After a long stint working in Hollywood, with films like 'When a Man Loves a Woman', Mexican filmmaker Luis Mandoki returned to direct in Spanish with 'Voces Inocentes', based on the childhood of filmmaker Oscar Torres, who witnessed the horrors of the Salvadoran Civil War, in which children were even recruited from the age of 12 to fight. Without falling into sensationalism, it is a production that balances the innocent vision of its young protagonists with the brutality of what they are going through. The film was awarded at the 2005 Berlin International Film Festival and earned 10 nominations for the Ariel Awards - Best Film among them -, of which it won three statuettes: Best Female Co-acting (Ofelia Medina), Best Makeup and Best Special Effects."
