Co-director Tito Catacora discusses Yana-Wara, which is Peru’s entry for the Oscars’ international feature category. Watch above.
The behind-the-scenes story behind Yana-Wara is tinged with sadness because original director Oscar Catacora died during production, whereupon his uncle Tito took over directing duties.
The film tells of a murder trial that uncovers abuse, features entirely non-professional actors and is in the Indigenous Aymara language.
Quechua Films handles sales on the film.
