• Resumen

  • Amauta Films (1937-1940) was the first and only production company that attempted to create a film industry in Peru that would take advantage of a consolidated Latin American market. Its rise and fall was intimately tied to the Mexican film industry, whose models it took and transplanted for an audience of principally middle-class Creoles. They were only partially successful in creating original Peruvian character types and incorporating traditional folklore music in the soundtracks.
