Inside the Americas – Peru’s Documentary Films

In-depth reports and analysis from our extensive network of correspondents throughout the region on the most important developments in Latin America. Peru has an impressive history of documentary making. The Guarango production house, for example, has won international awards for films on topics ranging from regional cuisine to social issues, such as “Churopampa: The Price of Gold,” which deals with the harsh effects on gold mining in the Andes. Inside Peru, unfortunately, such successes are largely unknown. teleSUR
