Synopsis

Immersed in the world of uywa ch'uwa, a family gathers to perform the ancient ritual dedicated to the pakucha, the alpaca's soul. Set deep within the breathtaking southern Andes, Pakucha opens to us the Aymara family's celebration and hypnotically guides us through their worldview in Andean culture. The family, surrounded by animals and nature, draws us into their pathway through the universe, where the final destination is the genesis of a new life.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
