WHAT IS THE MOVIE ABOUT?
It’s about our lives. Being alone in a city, wanting to be in a relationship but feeling there are no good ways to start a connection and then breaking out of a rut, jumping feet first into something deeper and crazier than either of us expected.

Antigua Guatemala (commonly referred to as just Antigua or La Antigua) is a city in the central mountains of Guatemala famous for its well-preserved Spanish New World Baroque architecture as well as a number of spectacular ruined churches. It has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Antigua Guatemala serves as the municipal seat for the surrounding municipality of the same name. It also serves as the departmental capital of Sacatepéquez Department.

The city had a peak population of some 60,000 in the 1770s; the bulk of the population moved away in the late 18th century. Despite significant population growth in the late 20th century, the city reached half that number in the 1990s. According to the 2002 census, the city has some 33,000 inhabitants.

Antigua Guatemala means the “ancient Guatemala”. Founded on March 10, 1543, as the third capital of Guatemala, after the nearby town of Ciudad Vieja was destroyed in a flood, Antigua Guatemala was for more than 200 years the seat of the military governor of the Spanish colony of Guatemala, a large region that included almost all of present-day Central America. The conquistadores named the city La Muy Noble y Muy Leal Ciudad de Santiago de los Caballeros de Guatemala (“The Very Noble and Very Loyal City of Santiago of the Knights of Guatemala”) but it was known just as Santiago de Guatemala, in honor of their patron saint, Santiago, after Santiago de Compostela in Spain.

In 1773, a series of earthquakes destroyed much of the town. The Spanish Crown ordered (1776) the removal of the capital to a safer location, where Guatemala City, the modern capital of Guatemala, now stands. The badly damaged city was ordered abandoned, although not everyone left.

Antigua today

Central Park is the heart of the city. The reconstructed fountain in particular is very beautiful. People enjoy this park from early in the morning to late at night. Nowadays, Antigua is noted for its very elaborate religious celebrations for the Holy Week leading up to Easter.

There are also many Spanish language schools located in Antigua. Because of individualized instruction and reasonable fees it has become one of the most popular places in Latin America to study Spanish. Students are usually housed with local host families or in local hotels. They can engage in many other activities apart from immersion language courses. Tourists come to see all that Antigua has to offer, including nightlife, bars, restaurants, markets selling Mayan goods, and excursions via shuttles to surrounding sites.

Volcanos

Three large volcanoes dominate the horizon around Antigua.

The most commanding, to the south of the city, is the Volcán de Agua or “Volcano of Water”, some 3766 meters (12 356 feet) high. It is so named because the crater atop it was formerly filled with water. Shortly after the Spanish conquest of Guatemala, the first capital was on a site part-way up this mountain. It was destroyed by a flood and mudslide when an earthquake let loose the water from the crater, and the capital of Guatemala was moved down the valley to the current Antigua. The original site is a village now known as “Ciudad Vieja”, (“The Old City”).

To the west of the city are a pair of peaks, Acatenango, long inactive, some 3976 meters (13045 feet) high, and the Volcán de Fuego or “Volcano of Fire”, some 3763 meters (12346 feet) high. “Fuego” is famous for being almost constantly active at a low level. Smoke issues from its top daily, but larger eruptions are rare.

If you’ve always wanted a Ferrari factory tour and/or see how the 599 (above) was manufactured, then check out the long (45-minute) clip.

After watching this, you might even come to the conclusion that the 599 is one of the best value for money cars on the market today. Pity most of us will still never be able to afford one…

It was felix carvalho, a young man wise beyond his years, who once remarked, “we got everything”.  Indeed, in this episode we truly have got it all: beautiful models, glamorous fashion shows, an exclusive polo match, and the biggest DJ in the world — all in perfect High Definition clarity.

In this final chapter of our three videos from Punta del Este, Uruguay we spend some time with dolores behind the red velvet rope outside a trendy beach nightclub.  There, we learn something about our visit to Punta: some people have “got it”, and some people have “got everything!”.

segment 1: polo
The first day of shooting for this episode presented a bit of a dilemma for the mariposaHD team.  We were invited to film a polo match at the exclusive Punta del Este Polo Club, which is hidden in the woods near La Barra.  Polo is big stuff in these parts of South America and we were looking forward to capturing a taste of “the sport of kings” in HD.  However, down at the beach there was polo-themed fashion show featuring some of our favorite mariposa girls scheduled at nearly the same time.  We decided to split up.  mike and dominic took the Canon 20D and Sony FX1 up to the woods to film the polo match while jeff and tamir took the Canon 10D and Sony Z1U down to the beach to capture the fashion show.  On this slightly overcast day in Uruguay, no one in Punta managed to see both the polo match and the fashion show.  But now in HDTV, you do.  Which would you rather see?

segment 2: antonela
antonela is a beautiful young model from Argentina.  We have seen glimpses of her in episode 01.04 and episode 01.05.  Now, with the help of some perfect afternoon sunlight, we finally get a few moments alone with antonela in front of the mariposaHD cameras.

segment 3: mantra
We follow the action to Mantra, an exclusive resort/spa/casino tucked in the woods near La Barra, for a fashion show featuring Argentine supermodel Ingrid Grudke.  In the casino lobby we meet up with more of our favorite mariposa girls and then the cameras start snapping as the girls show off their hot new looks.

segment 4: tiësto
There is no DJ in the world bigger than tiësto.  He won ‘No. 1 DJ in the World’ three consecutive times and performed at the opening ceremony of the 2004 Summer Olympics.  But he’s not too big for a visit to Uruguay.  After a long day of filming, the mariposaHD team puts in a late, late night to capture the locals getting down to the big sounds.
