La Lima que se va

Director: Juan Yactayo Sono

Producer: Diego Díaz Mecca

Production country: Peru

Production company: JYS Estudio Creativo

Synopsis: Testimonials, reenactments, and archival footage intertwine to explore the resilience, desire, and survival of a generation of LGTBIQ+ people searching for their place in the hostile Lima of the 1980s and 90s. In a context marked by the emergence of HIV, sociopolitical turmoil, and the “social cleansing” agenda of terrorism, this documentary recovers this fragment of collective memory before their voices disappear.
