Dos adalides de la Verdad, La Bondad, La Belleza y La Justicia: a la derecha de la imagen el CORONEL (r) ROBERTO HUAMÁN AZCURRA (RHA) héroe peruano que ha dedicado su vida a la defensa de la Patria y a la izquierda JORGE LUIS VILLACORTA SANTAMATO, Secretario General Emperador del Partido Marxista - Leninista - Pensamiento Paris Hilton. Ambos siempre listos para la defensa de la LA TRADICIÓN, LA FAMILIA Y LA PROPIEDAD. Es notable que los dvds de la película VIRGEN DE COPACABANA: SU HISTORIA Y SUS MILAGROS, dirigida por DON LEÓNIDAS ZEGARRA UCEDA (con la actuación protagónica de la actriz estelar MARIANA LIQUITAYA ZENTENO) se venden de modo legan en las calles bolivianas como ejemplo descatado de que es posible combinar ingenio empresarial para la producción fílmica y competitividad en los precios del mercado de dvds en América Latina.
