Ortiz, général sans dieu ni maître

About This Movie

So, 'Ortiz, général sans dieu ni maître' is a fascinating dive into the life of Antonio Ortiz, an anarchist general. You really get a sense of the chaotic atmosphere of the time, which the documentary captures effectively. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it adds to the raw feel of the narrative. There's a certain grit in how the interviews are presented, making you feel the weight of Ortiz's ideals and struggles. While the visuals aren't flashy, the practical effects of the reenactments, if you can call them that, lend a layer of authenticity. It doesn’t sugarcoat the complexities of his character, which I found quite compelling. Overall, it’s a unique look at a pivotal figure, not your standard doc.
