Il Postino
The life of the fisherman Mario changes dramatically when the famous Chilean writer Pablo Neruda settles on his little Italian island. Living in exile because of his political beliefs, Neruda needs a postman to deliver the huge quantities of mail sent to him by his admirers and Mario takes the job since he hates fishing anyway. The two become friends and Neruda helps the shy and clumsy Mario to win the heart of Beatrice, the beautiful waitress at the village's inn, by showing him the beauty and power of poetry.
End of the Spear
The true story of a group of Christian missionaries in Ecuador who set
out to reach the Wadani tribe (a violent Ecuadorian tribe defined by

by Mincayani and others in the tribe (who believe all foreigners are
cannibals), the wives and children of those men move into the Wadani
tribe to teach them about God. End of the Spear is an amazing story of
Truth, Love, and Forgiveness.
