    I like it. Peru *is* magical.

  2. Miguel Vera says:

    It is bizarre, and wonderful at the same time. That’s Peru. Love the video, especially the scene with the scissors cutting through the water drop. Perfect.

  3. Ed says:

    WOW. I like it a lot.

  4. Alan Malarkey says:

    Sorry for me it fails to capture it – too glossy and too invested in the past. That said I guess it will hook in the punters for a taste of the not inconsiderable wealth of culture. I would like it to have referenced biodiversity, people and their warmth, more food and produce and the scenic countryside. I guess in summary it feels like a stereotypical and cliched perspective, but then I’m hard to please!

    The Hollywood interpretation rather than the Discovery Channel documentary… I know what you mean.

  6. Mariella says:

    Muestran imagines muy lindas pero ese Peru no es real. Es el imaginario limpiecito de gusto occidental, Donde esta la gente peruana? hay dos poblaciones que muestran, la blanca y la nativa folklorizada. Tienen razon muy “cliche” y como dice Alan “too vested in the past”. Y hasta ese pasado jerarquicamente controlado por la cultura Inca.
