The Center for Latin American Studies presents ¿Quién mató a la llamita blanca? / Who Killed the White Llama? on Wednesday, February 10 at 7:30 p.m. in 180 Hagerty Hall. Jacinto and Domitila are two happily married indigenous Bolivians and the most notorious criminals in the country. When they are paid to transport 50 grams of cocaine to the Brazilian border, they embark on riotous adventure through the jungles, mountains, deserts, and cities of Bolivia while their friendship is tested and they question their future as criminals. With two of the country’s top anti-narcotics officers on their trail, what should have been a simple arrest soon becomes a hilarious game of cat-and-mouse, exposing all the irony and corruption that comes with Bolivian life.
