Synopsis
´Warmipura´ portrays the life and memories of a group of women who live in the Jatun Churicana community in Chuquisaca, Bolivia. Their testimonies interweave with their memories to reconstruct the knowledge passed on from one generation to the next. The film praises the community’s daily chores which define its culture in relation to its natural surroundings. ´Warmipura´ is a grandmother’s sigh that survives amidst the transformations of the present.
