Augusto Zegarra’s Runa Simi follows Fernando, a radio host from Cusco, who dreams of dubbing The Lion King into Quechua to advocate for his endangered indigenous language. Filmed with tender realism and intimate father‑son close-ups, the film balances gentle humor and quiet determination as the pair confront setbacks. Runa Simi is a story of transmission, linguistic reclamation and cultural resistance, a warm, humane portrait of love, memory and communal resilience.
