Everything

A horror film that tries to keep one foot in independent cinema and the other in B movies.

In Ramón & Ramón, Salvador del Solar offers an intimate melodrama of grief, filiation, and male desire set against the backdrop of the pandemic, but he frames it in such a conventional dramatic device that it ends up diminishing much of its power. The film seems to waver between a delicate portrait of wounded subjectivity and the aspiration to create a sociocultural allegory of contemporary Peru, without fully embracing the risk that either of these paths would require.

My Storylof is a surprising anomaly in Peruvian cinema and, in some ways, capable of rewriting one or two rules of our commercial cinema. Its production and release have been made possible, to a large extent, thanks to the privileges of its protagonist, screenwriter, and director, the Trujillo-based influencer and actor Benjamin Doig, who one day appeared before Cecilia Gómez de la Torre, to ask her, "How do you make a movie? I want to make my own!"

Fernando Valencia is an enthusiastic radio host from Cusco with a mission: to dub Disney classic The Lion King (1994) into Quechua.

In The Innocents, Germán Tejada transforms Oswaldo Reynoso's classic book into a dark and sensory coming-of-age story where adolescent masculinity breaks down under the harsh light of the neighborhood, but his commitment to stylization leaves open questions about what kind of violence he is willing to face head-on.

A powerful incursion into the Peru made possible by this Quechua-speaking rock band.

“An imperfect but honest film that deserves the public's full support.”

“A film concerned with entertaining with military propaganda for easy applause in 90 minutes.”

“Alfa & Bravo” could have ended up being one of those recent Peruvian B-movies that are hardly worth mentioning (“Vaguito,” “Locos de amor: mi primer amor,” "¿Ahora somos 3? Yes, My Love") but no, it is a film with specific successes that make it digestible and can be considered a bubbly manifestation of the film industry monstrosity that is developing before our eyes.

“El correcaminos” (The Roadrunner) is the most entertaining Peruvian film of the year and the most original commercial film our country has produced in many years. A film in the style of “The Fast and the Furious” but with motorcycle taxis, reminiscent of “Wacky Races”
