Yuyainiyuq Trailer (2025)
01 January 2025 Factual 15 mins
After years living in Lima, Enriqueta Cancho returns to Mayopampa to heal the wounds of the internal armed conflict. In Ayacucho, she visits the general cemetery and, following a custom associated with death, shares coffee and chapla bread with her mother-in-law, Avelina. Amidst memories, they talk about the years of fear they endured in Huamanga. Later, in the town of Mayopampa, she shells corn with her aunt Emilia, a practice many local women have done since childhood. As her hands work, memories and the names of those who are no longer with them surface. In her old house, she creates an altar and buries a photograph alongside her grief. In this way, Enriqueta reconstructs her own story and that of so many women who silently endured.
