Drama Like the elderly couple in Ozu’s wonderful Tokyo Story (1953), the main characters of Wiñaypacha carry upon their bent backs the sadness of being forgotten by their son. Nonetheless, they do not invest in anger nor build up blame. They spend their days weaving the blanket that keeps them warm on cold nights, chewing on coca leaves, and dreaming of a wind that will bring their firstborn back home.

El retrato de la soledad desde las alturas de Perú. Una pareja de ancianos que ruegan por el regreso de un hijo distante. Los paisajes, la fotografía, los planos horizontales: con estos recursos podemos captar la inmensidad del clima cordillerano. Quizás el ritmo esté un poco aletargado, pero eso no opaca esta obra hecha de silencio y paciencia.
