Santo Luzbel

[tecpaocelotl]

I think it’s a good movie. The dialect of Nahuatl is the same I been teaching here on the site. I like how they used a lot of location in Puebla.

Wiki I added on the movie:

Here is what they are saying (I changed it a bit from the subtitles in the movie bc they would either add more or a lack of it. No wonder people are confused on Nahuatl.):

-We just painted a new curtian.

-And I put precious stones on my crown.

-Let’s go to my place. We’ll drink, chat & dance.

-Yes. Let’s go before your grandmother spanks you.

-Good evening, Melchior.

-Good evening.

-We’ve come from the town of Yohualichan to ask you for a great favor.

-Go ahead.

-My father, Facundo Perez, always organized the Colloquium of Saint Michael Archangel until he died five years ago. Since then, it hasn’t been held.

-Why not?

-Becaue all our efforts have failed and brought about many misfortunes. This man lost his son. This one’s wife sticks to him like a shadow. And this one, the church keeper, is going crazy just as Father Leopoldo Santos Higerada says. And for me, Delfino, the municipal president, is stealing my land. Things are getting worse & worse.

-But why do you come to me? I only know how to keep my vow to my patron saint, Melchior.

-You’re famous for holding the Colloquium of the Wise Men for so many years.

-22.

-That’s why I’ve asked my godchildren to come with me to ask for help in holding this Colloquium.

-Holy Saint Michael’s been following him all day long insulting & cursing him.

-He appears to me in my dreams & if I turn quickly I can almost see him behind me, trying to grab my arm. That’s why I came to Cuetzalan to seek help.

-That can happen when a patron saint gets furious. I’m sorry, but I don’t know how to do anything for another saint. So you have to excuse me. Get your stuff. We’re expected at home. May God grant you a good night. I hope Father Julio can help you.

I've seen it. I was walking by video vendor entrepreneur who had this video on the sidewalk and picked up. Not bad...
