The tumultuous past and the ever-changing landscape are a constant background presence in Notes for a Film.

El artista chileno Felipe Cusicanqui emprende un viaje a Bolivia tras la huella de una antigua leyenda familiar, según la cual su sangre proviene de la nobleza inca. Durante su peregrinaje por el altiplano de Los Andes, explorando el paisaje y las ruinas del imperio, viendo cómo los lugareños viven, pastorean, tejen y miran las estrellas, Felipe experimenta una aventura fuera del tiempo ordinario, que lo conecta con el desarraigo de su abuelo boliviano. Al ritmo de un protagonista de curiosidad insaciable, el documental más reciente de Ana María Hurtado le otorga un valor ético y estético al acto de hurgar en el origen, así sea a costa de derrumbar historias épicas para revelar belleza a partir de las miserias de la vida real.

These conversations are related to images in the director's personal archive, as if what is truly cinematographic was found among bits that were never made for the screen.

I remember the night when the history of my family changed. We received a phone call from Peru saying that my aunt Sibila was in prison accused of forming part of the Shining Path. I was seven years old and my parent's protective silence made me transform her image into a great mystery. She was kept in prison for 15 years. Today she is free and I want to get close to her, to listen and to understand.
