YONQUE & BLOOD
In a rural town in northern Peru, a young healer performs rituals to cure ailments blamed on witchcraft and envy. Under the strict control of her father—a man who consumes yonque (a potent local moonshine) while profiting from every “cleansing”—the girl becomes the instrument of a community desperate to believe. However, when a crucial ritual crosses the line between healing and violence, blood will begin to reveal the dark secrets that alcohol and local beliefs had kept hidden.

Un cortometraje con un final muy perturbador que muestra un tipo de abuso amparado en creencias populares. Gran trabajo en dirección de fotografía, arte vestuario y actuación. Folkhorror del bueno.
Un cortometraje poderoso, muy buen trabajo de dirección, los encuadres son perfectos y cumplen su objetivo de incomodar al espectador. 10000/10.
