Spanish with English subtitles | 104 min | Narrative
There is a second screening of REINAS on Sept 12th
REINAS is an intense, choral and moving tale of initiation in the spirit of the 90s. Everything happens very fast in Lima in the summer of 1992. Lucia, Aurora and their mother are about to leave Peru. They are apprehensive about saying goodbye to family, friends, and their country, but above all, to Carlos, a father and ex-husband who has all but disappeared from their lives. Amid Peru’s social and political chaos, the trio face the uncertainty of their future head-on. Their frustrations and fears mix with excitement and expectation as they embrace the brutal truth about the losses this departure implies.’
