Clara is a teenager growing up in a small indigenous community high in the Andes. Her adoptive mother, a midwife who took her in as a baby, has taught her the ancient songs used to guide women through childbirth, melodies passed down for generations, believed to bring new life safely into the world. But while her voice carries on this tradition, her dreams lie elsewhere: she longs to leave the mountains behind and become a folkloric music star in the big city.

A movie this specific could, in the hands of a less talented filmmaker, feel exclusionary. Instead, The Condor Daughter is a story anyone can relate to, even if they’re not familiar with the setting or the language. Go to Full Review Dionar Hidalgo Algo Más Que Cine Aug 3

Through its contemplative rhythm and narrative honesty, it invites reflection on loss, belonging, and the resilience of indigenous cultures in a globalized world that...often demands the sacrifice of one's own identity.

The Condor Daughter is, without a doubt, an experience that invites us to approach the Andean world with new eyes, not only to question its harmful patriarchy but also to revalue the contributions of its women...[Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews
