History of Latin American film bears some resemblance, it is believed that no country appears in a film a movie and it changes everything, breaks patterns and opens the way for more productions to come. To this must have won a prize at an international festival, otherwise go unnoticed. Then, with the award-winning film, the feeling of making films awake displayed laws, and a body to hold it, and new films begin to birth.
All this process are living most Latin countries (while in others there is talk of industry: Mexico, Argentina and Brazil), each at a different stage. Guatemala is a clear example of this reality, and the film "revolutionary" in this case is gasoline, the debut of Julio Hernández Cordón, which tells the story of three teenagers Nano, Gary and Raymond, who like all of his class go without aimlessly, enjoying life without the codes that govern them, only their friendship, which sometimes come into play, but hopefully come out victorious.
One of the three has drawn carriage, but not gasoline, so the steal, to go where they want to treat them as the day. And that day is not very well, a breathing problem, the consequence of leaving 'sister pregnant at 14 years of others and the pursuit of money to feel safer is mixed with loneliness on the streets of Guatemala. All that we see still shots with natural light, although "Gasolina" is all natural, artificial things not fit, is the reality not only in Guatemala but his film, almost nonexistent. That is why this film means the time that country, all prizes won are the beginning of a story that surely we will grow, to join the progress of Latin cinema today starts with g Guatemala asolina ... tomorrow will come the engines.
