Peru: ‚Wiñaypacha‘ First Film in Aymara, Recommended to Oscar

During the premiere of the film, Oscar Catacora told local media that „the movie is completely filmed in the Aymara language; it‘s a purely indigenist (advocating for indigenous people) film.“ Catacora explained that the objective of his work is to promote the Andean culture through cinematography and to raise awareness to the problem of social exclusion suffered by the Indigenous peoples, especially in the Andes.
