- Quotes
Great Observer: You know, before they threw me into this hole, I was the Great Observer of the Inca. Yes. The Sun Gazer. I worshipped Inti, our Sun God.
Tepulpai: Really?
Great Observer: Yes. And now, here I am, forever deprived of light. Ah, such irony. I have become the Shadow Gazer, grateful for this puma to keep me company. You'll see. You'll get used to it in time. Just like me.

Featured review
If only the story was better
This is a standard coming of age tale that is elevated by the setting. The tale of young kid learning the value of community and thinking about things larger than himself proceeds in a predictable manner with little narrative inventiveness. The story works but it follows a well worn path. I did appreciate that film didn't pull punches on the Spanish Conquistadors and portrayed them as the evil brutes they were. At least this coming of age film is more honest than most.
But what sets the film apart is the animation style. It has a wonderfully expressive quality that invokes the Inca influences while being very pleasant to look at. There is a otherworldly feel to many of the scenes that capture the feeling of a fairy tale.
I think kids would get a lot out of this film; more so than their parents.
