BEING PERUVIAN ON JULY 28 | A Short Film
While national leaders invoked the homeland through red-and-white symbols, the country was experiencing a profound crisis of political representation and legitimacy under Dina Boluarte's government. In that context, our first short film was born, created by a small Indigenous team in a highland community.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

July 28th, Peru’s Independence Day. A man loses his memory. A grandmother tries to heal him from forgetting. Yet memory runs deeper. More than 70% of peruvian DNA has Indigenous ancestry, according to the National Geographic Genographic Project. Long before the Republic, long before any modern government, the people now called peruvians had already inhabited these ecosystems for thousands of years. We are older than the State, wiser than any government, and more resilient than any crisis.

 

That story was built through sleepless nights, scenes filmed at 3°C, and countless script revisions shaped by everyday conversations. It reached 2 million views in its first 24 hours, sparking thousands of comments about identity and memory.
