Trailer & Synopsis
Eight-year-old Feliciano spends his days looking after alpacas in a remote region of the Andes. His only companions are Ronaldo, a young alpaca, and Rambo, an old dog. During his long days watching the alpacas grazing, he chats with them about football and his excitement that Peru has a chance to qualify for the 2018 World Cup.
However, his community and the region’s delicate ecosystem are in jeopardy, due to contamination of the pastures and pressure from a mining company. As Feliciano goes about his daily life, the village residents decide to take their fate into their own hands, organising themselves to withstand pressure from the mining company to sell their land.?
From director Franco García Becerra, Through Rocks and Clouds is a sensitive Quechua-language drama seen through the hopeful gaze of Feliciano that exposes the risks and difficulties faced by Andean and indigenous communities. Set against a breathtaking backdrop of the snowcapped Andes, this is a poignant tale of resilience and community in the face of socio-environmental conflict.
