Synopsis:
"Yaku Patsa" means "World of Water". This documentary shows the culture of the people that live in the southern region of Conchucos (Ancash, Peru) through their relationships with water. Drifting upstream from 2000 meters above sea level to 5000 meters, the film encounters people and their culture, stories, histories and beliefs against the impossibly lush and breathtaking landscapes of southern the Andes. Antonio, a carpenter, recounts how his ancestors used to call for water during droughts. Ninfa shows us how to make maize beer. Bebel, an archaeologist, narrates an origin myth and Jose, a mountaineer describes how global warming is affecting his profession and the tranquil glaciers that give water to all the region. A ritual, a custom, a myth and a reality.
