El huaro

Directed by Patricia Wiesse Risso

Stories of love and heartbreak, marked by tragedy, intertwine in Imaza, a territory of the Peruvian Amazon jungle. There, the river separates two worlds that do not meet. In one of them, a vital treasure for the survival of the town is hidden, where a school houses a group of girls who share their hopes and despairs. In the other, hostility and uncertainty prevail. The river not only divides geographies, but also destinies. That is why crossing it is a challenge with unpredictable consequences. “El Huaro” is there to remind them of the price of their decisions.
