Summary of Captain Pantoja and the Special Services

Captain Pantaleon Pantoja (Salvador del Solar) is a straightlaced Peruvian military man with a new wife and a child on the way. Honest and hardworking, he has no choice but to follow orders when he is given the assignment of supplying prostitutes to troops stationed in the Amazon so that they will stop hassling the limited supply of local girls. Trouble arises though, when Pantoja faces great sexual temptation in the form of one of the "working girls" (Angie Cepedas) and his cover is under threat of being blown by local authorities. Based on the novel by Mario Vargas Llosa, CAPTAIN PANTOJA is spicy arthouse romp.

Esta es la adaptacion de un libro muy divertido de Mario Vargas Llosa. Como es de todos sabido...siempre el libro sera mejor que la pelicula (a menos que sea un libro escrito con base en el guion de la pelicula). Por eso no la voy a comparar con el...
