Runa Simi
9.1
Single father and Cusco radio host Fernando shares a modest yet endearing hobby with his son: dubbing classic animated clips into Quechua, an Indigenous language spoken by a relatively small population. When one of their dubs unexpectedly goes viral, a private passion transforms into something far more ambitious and meaningful.
