Trivia
Protested against the arrest of Jafar Panahi, detained on 1 March 2010. "Jafar Panahi is a uniquely sensitive artist. As a Brazilian filmmaker, I came to admire and to learn from the memorable films that he has directed, such as 'The White Balloon' and 'The Circle'. The fact that such an important artist cannot express himself freely and is now under arrest in his own country is not only an act of violence against Jafar Panahi and his family, but also against all who admire his work and support freedom of expression throughout the world".
Quotes
I don't think we can say what the Latin American identity is, but I think we can try to look for it, and look for the reverberations from it.
