"Ojos Rojos"

The films are the best way to relax because allow us to discover many relations with our life….

“Ojos rojos” is a film that I liked so much. This films shows as the Chile team´s qualified to the Sudafrica world cup 2010, besides it shows how the players achieved change the way of playing soccer in our country.

I think that this film showed to the superbly how the soccer player changed his way of thinking. This film was created during 4 years. To make this movie, the producers had to travel all over sudamerica following the Chile’s team during all games that they played. Also shows all the work Marcelo Bielsa did.

This film has been a success throughout the country, but there’s already many illegal copies of this film, which is very bad for the Chilean cinema because it’s hard making good films in our country, therefore we must not allow this….
