El Regalo De La Pachamama
(Toshifumi Matsushita, Bolivia, 2008, Beta-SP, 102 min) Co-presented by Longhouse Media and National Geographic All Roads Film Project.
In this film spiritual tale set in Bolivia, Kunturi is a 13-year-old boy who lives in the traditional way, with his family near the salt lake of Uyuni. One spring he goes with his father on his first caravan. Strapping blocks of salt to the backs of their llamas, they follow the "Salt Trail" for months, exchanging the precious mineral for other products of the Andes. Along the way, through many experiences and encounters, Kunturi discovers his personal and Quechuan identity.
