My favourite movie

   

    My favourite movie is Donnie Darko. Was filmed on 2001 and the director is Richard Kelly. 
    Its plot is about that one night, a young guy, Donnie, wake up and talk with a human size  and demonic appearance rabbit that predict the end of the Word. Donnie wake up the next day in a far away golf camp, he go to his house and his bedroom was completely destroyed by the turbine of a not-finded airplane. A tangential  universe was created and this and the primary  going to be destroyed  if Donnie don`t can save them. The story continue with time travel stories, the scholar adventures of Donnie, his schizophrenia and how Donnie save the universe.
     It movie like to me because its plot is very complex,  the movie topics are interesting for me (time travels, multi universe theories, etc) and have very much details without a simple explanation doing the plot more difficult to understand.
     I don`t remebeber exactly the first time that watched it movie, but it was around six years ago, and I watch it again  more than six times.

The power of one!




     In this picture called Tank Man appear a unknow guy who stood in front of a long column of tanks trying to stop them. He faced the tank, climbed over it and confront to the soldiers achieving interrupt their progress for a few time.

     This picture was taken by the photographer Jeff Widener, from the Beijing hotel, on june 5, 1989, in the context of Tiananmen Square protests and the harsh government repression.

     This picture like to me because show exemplarily the determination that a person can have and as a single man can confront that powerful army. I think that many people, with bravery and conviction, can do amazing things.

     Also, the picture show how a government won´t spare military resources when have to defend their power even at the cost of human lives. The previous day the army killed in this square around 2500 people and left more than 10000 injured.

     It is one of the most iconic photographs of the XX century and was censored for a long time in China.

Torres del Paine


I wish to visit Torres del Paine National Park, because it is a very beautiful place. It has one of the top ten most wonderful landscapes in all the world. I have had the luck to  see many pictures, videos and read some tales about this place, talking about its vegetation, animals, climbing routes, interminable rain, enormous forest. Etc. And this evidence  seem confirms to me its beauty.
I also want to go because it may be a very good place for camping, and take many photographs.
I like travel with some friends, but I didn`t talk about it with them. I need find the indicated peoples.
The most recomendable season to realize the travel is in summer, because the rest of year is very rainy and cold. I like visit Torres del Paine the next year.
In first place, I need work to save the money for the bus ticket  and, depending on circumstances, I could to do a part of the travel backpacking. The  option to traverse the park is walking, around 95 Km by one week. I need to improve my physical condition, knowledge and skills for this adventure.
