La Pelicula

This is the film that we created to say thank you and goodbye to our wonderful language school (PLQ) in Guatemala. It is the tradition for graduating students to present something. Typically they will stand up and say thank you, tell a story or recite a poem. But since we like to believe we are cooler than everyone else we took this as a challenge. We spent two weeks working on our "proyecto secreto" and everyone was looking forward to something clever and funny from Las Tres Mosqueteras. Of course, two hours before the big event all the power in Xela went out. The only other thing we had prepared to communicate our gratitude and sum up our entire five weeks of study at PLQ was an intro to the movie. Here it is in it's entirety:

Sarah: Primero, nos gustaria decir Muchas Gracias a todos.

Andrea: Hemos hecho una pelicula para ustedes.

Gabby: Entonces, por favor, vamos a la sala de cine.

Needless to say nobody was impressed and we were depressed. But, a few hours later after dinner had been served, the beer had run out and people were just getting ready to leave the power came back on...Sarah immediately ordered Carlos, the director of the school, to herd everyone into the theatre "como vacas". Of course, the people loved it.

Disfruta!
