I'd just about class <em>'Chuquiago'</em> as a good film, even if it is one that does lose interest as it goes on. The short run time of around 86 minutes means it doesn't ever stray into boring territory, thankfully. The stories of Isico and Johnny are the standouts of this anthology flick, those with Carlos and Patricia aren't as watchable but aren't necessarily uninteresting either - just 'meh'. It's neat to see 1970s La Paz, while the music is solid.
