It is May 1520 in the vast Aztec Empire one year after the Spanish Conqueror Hernán Cortés’ arrival in Mexico. “The Other Conquest” opens with the infamous massacre of the Aztecs at the Great Temple of Tenochtitlan [what is now called Mexico City]. The sacred grounds are covered with the countless bodies of priests and nobility slaughtered by the Spanish Armies under Cortés’ command. The lone Aztec survivor of the massacre is a young Indian scribe named Topiltzin [Damián Delgado].
Topiltzin, who is the illegitimate son of the Aztec Emperor Moctezuma, survives the onslaught by burying himself under a stack of bodies. As if awakening from a dream, the young man rises from among the dead to find his mother murdered, the Spanish in power and the dawn of a new era in his native land. A New World with new leaders, language, customs… and God. Representing the New Order is the Spanish Friar Diego [José Carlos Rodríguez].
His mission is to convert the “savage” natives into civilised Christians; to replace their human sacrifices and feathered deities with public Christenings and fealty to the Blessed Virgin Mary. With Topiltzin, Friar Diego faces his most difficult spiritual and personal challenge, for when Topiltzin is captured by Spanish troops and presented to Cortés [Iñaki Aierra], the Spanish Conqueror places Topiltzin’s conversion under Friar Diego’s care. Old world confronts the New as Topiltzin struggles to preserve his own beliefs, whilst Friar Diego attempts to impose his own. Moreover, all the while, the question remains: Who is converting whom?

Hm looks a bit boring, but i think ill check it out later
i have the same opinion about it, that’s why I already deleted it
If you interested in Mexico City there is a restaurant that serve nothing but Aztec Food. I will not spoil the experience for you but the Aztec had a very unique diet.
I’ll down load and enjoy.
@#3 lol
thats great d00d
@#3
hmm, I know I’ll catch hell for this. what on earth are you talking about…I don’t get it.
thanks for this one!
Always nice with drama/history movies…
And that timeperiod is so fascinating with conquistadors…
#3, WTF you talking about? 99% if the diet consisted of rice, beans and squash.
Sounds good to me. I’ll try it. Thanks.
For those who think they know what the Aztec ate, you couldn’t hit sand if you fell at the beach.
It’s an experience and so I think this movie well be as well. If nothing else, to my knowledge it’s the first attempt to explain what was happen to the Aztec’s when Spain invaded Mexico.
been looking for this for a while! prob not as good as apocalypto but love this kind of movie anyway!
not for most chumps im sure but for anyone with taste check the reviews
How do you add the subtitles file into the video?
When I down loaded there was no sub title so it may be hard coded if not I’ll be spending my time trying to find it myself.
all the subtitle files come with it , just extract them all put them in the same directory as the film and tell VLC or whatever to use the slv file. worked fine for me, but have to say the film is pretty damn boring. if your expecting apocalypto you’ll be disapointed.
Found the movie to be quite interesting, for a while I did not understand it but toward the end found what it meant!! “The Other Conquest” The actual conquering of the so called savage religion and the conversion to Christianity! The Other Conquest… the conquering of the idigenous soul.
