5.0 out of 5 stars A story of betrayal, Jun 7 2004
This review is from: Mission, the (VHS Tape)
In The Mission one can see that religion played an important role in the conquest of the indigenous people. This film is depressing due to the fact that the Guarani indians were betrayed by the white man. We can also see that Christianity had a great impact on the new believers. One example of this is when one of the fathers stays behind and prays with the Guarani indians just to be killed by the soldiers. the indians believes are also strong ones because even though they were being betrayed they died believing in Christianity. Rodrigo played by Robert DeNiro fights against his own white people because he knows that what white man is doing is wrong. this film shows us that any man who has more kowledge of the world can conquer a world where their is people who know very little about the world that is beyond their own. I rocomend this film greatly, so that one can see the injustice of the past eventhough it is useless now because the past has stayed behing and their is nothing we can do to change it.
