Run time: 92 min. | Peru | Language: In Spanish with English subtitles
A native of Lima, documentarian Heddy Honigmann returns to her hometown to explore the effects of years of political turmoil on the city's working class. Interviewing service workers and street performers, Honigmann draws out her subjects with simple questions—"Do you have dreams?"—that allow for full, moving portraits of lives struggling against circumstance. Lyrical, humanist and deeply empathetic, the film is both a damning critique of the destruction caused by official corruption and a moving tribute to the resiliency of those left behind.
