Lima Bruja

The original style of Creole music from the city of Lima. The traditional side of a genre that few people know about in the contemporary Peruvian music scene. Taking as a starting point the celebration of a birthday, the documentary shows interviews and musical performances of a group of veteran criollo singers -most of them over 70 years old- who incorporated music as an everyday thing. They show us how their life and their traditions mimic music, keeping it alive despite the disinterest and oblivion of the general public.
