In 1998 Walter Salles came to international prominence with his worldwide hit, "Central Station". At this time Latin America cinema was booming and finding new audiences across the globe. In 2004 Salles released his best known work to date, "The Motorcycle Diaries" about Che Guevara. "Foreign Land" is one of Salles' earlier works but shows the style of a young filmmaker about to become internationally known. (Verlagstext)
