Paloma de Papel, is a film that narrates the story of a boy living on the highlands of Peru and suffers the effect of terrorism in his community and is later kidnap by these terrorist and then forgotten by society after being taken by the police. Even though there are some mistakes in the direction, i think this movies has achieved to show the effect of terrorism, not in a historical way but in a some kind of metaphor. The acting of the main character was simply OK. But the preformance of the parents and the terrorist girls was great of not spectacular. I believe this movie is a great vision of Peru, the background with the highlands is simply impressive and it makes Peruvians really proud of our country. Latin people should see this movie because we have been affected by terrorism, and other: European and US should also see it to appreciate the greatness of Latin America and Peru.
