Cinema at the State Presents
UTAMA
Sponsored by Dean Prigmore & Patrice Taylor
While Virginio takes their small herd of llamas out to graze, Sisa keeps house and walks for miles with other local women to fetch precious water. When an uncommonly long drought threatens everything they know, they must decide whether to stay and maintain their traditional way of life or admit defeat and move in with family members in the city. Barbara Alvarez’s cinematography sets the vibrant colors of domestic life against arresting widescreen tracking shots of rural Bolivia's cracked earth and a (stunningly photogenic) herd of llamas. Bolivian entry for the 95th Academy Awards as the Best International Feature Film. “(A) film of dazzling visual power and genuine poignancy." – Glenn Kenny, RogerEbert.com.
