Romero is a compelling and deeply moving look at the life of Archbishop Oscar Romero of El Salvador, who made the uItimate sacrifice in a passionate stand against social injustice and oppression in his country.
This film chronicIes the transformation of Romero from an apoIitical, compIacent priest to a committed leader of the Salvadoran peopIe.
Acclaimed actor Raul Julia (KlSS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN) stars as this man of God forced by the unspeakable events going on around him to take a stand -- a stand that ultimateIy Ieads to his assassination in 1980 at the hands of the military junta.
This fiIm features powerful performances by Richard Jordan (INTERIORS, THE SECRET OF MY SUCCESS) and Ana Alicia. AustraIian writer-director John Duigan (THE YEAR MY VOlCE BROKE) makes his directorial debut with Romero. |
