Yutupis begins with the filmmaker performing a ritual. It evokes images, memories, of a village in the Peruvian jungle. From logging and fishing during the day to dancing and drinking at night, we observe both superstition and a strong belief in God. We hear indigenous songs as well as reggaeton. People speak in their native language or in Spanish, depending on the situation. The influences of past and present times are clear: the 16th-century colonization initiated the intercultural mixing that is further amplified by ongoing globalization. Yutupis is a means of observing and, as such, of preserving. To observe is to preserve, whether on film or in the mind.
