Altiplano

Largely set amongst the majestic beauty of the high Andes in Peru, ”Altiplano” is an ambitious, visually striking second feature from the filmmaking duo of Peter Brosens and Jessica Woodworth following their award-winning fiction debut ”Khadak” (2006). (…)

Cinematographer Francisco Gozon captures breathtaking images of piercing blue waters, snow-covered mountains and some of the religious rituals that are part of daily life in an area where spiritual values and community have a stronger grasp than the material urges of western cultures. The film does not lack narrative but Brosens and Woodworth seem more drawn towards contemplation than explanation.
