Alerta en la Frontera plot

The documentary tells the story of the Ecuadorian-Peruvian War of 1941, one of the most important military campaigns in Latin America of the twentieth century. The film features unpublished scenes filmed by war correspondents and reconstructions made by the Amauta Films team. Despite its patriotic tone, the film was banned by the Peruvian government in early 1942 due to peace negotiations with Ecuador.
