Reinas
110 MINUTES - SWITZERLAND / PERU / SPAIN
A FILM BY KLAUDIA REYNICKE
Everything happens very fast in Lima in the summer of 1992. Lucia, Aurora and their mother Elena are about to leave. They are apprehensive about saying goodbye to a country, to family and friends, but above all to Carlos, a father and ex-husband who has all but disappeared from their lives. In the midst of Peru's social and political chaos, this announced departure will give rise to contradictory feelings, reviving old regrets and generating new illusions. Facing the uncertainty of their future head on, their frustrations and fears are mixed with excitement and expectation, as the family faces the difficult truth about the losses this departure implies. REINAS is an intense, choral and moving tale of initiation, in the spirit of the 90s.
