How would America be today if things had been different?

Fuser, look what i think. I should marry with an Inca descendant|and found an indigenous party

We encourage everyone to vote

Reactivate Tupac Amaru's revolution,|the indoamerican revolution, Fuser|What do you think?

A revolution without gunshots?|You are crazy Mial

How is it possible that i feel nostalgia for a world i never knew

How do you explain that a civilization capable of building this

is wiped out to build...

...this

Lima, Peru|May 12th, 1952|Km 8198

- I know this is not the one|- No?

Mercaderes 52, let's ask

Mercaderes Street?

Mercaderes? 2 blocks that way, then turn right and 6 or 7 blocks more

- This one has to be Mercaderes|- That one too

Count from down there...from down there are 2, 4...|What?

Oh look

Can i help you with something?

This is the one from Mariategui...|and you should also read Cesar Vallejo

The best part of Lima, mom, was Dr. Hugo Pesce

The chief of the program for the treatment of leprosy in Peru

Alberto had contacted him before starting the journey

He fed us, gave us cloth, money and some very good ideas

Mariategui talks about the revolutionary potential of the|natives and farmers of Latin America

He says that the native main problem is the land

and that the revolution will not be a copy|but a heroic creation of our people

"7 ESSAYS OF INTERPRETATION OF THE PERUVIAN REALITY"

"We are too few to be divided", he says

Everything unites us

nothing keeps us apart...

Here's the main group of patients

Pesce let us stay at the guide Hospital, were they|treat patients in the first stage of the disease

The ones with more serious conditions are sent to San Pablo's|Lepers center in the Amazon

- Zoraida, this is Alberto, Ernesto|- How are you?|- Nice to meet you

Well, i think we know each other well enough|so i will allow myself to tell you something

I look into your eyes, Ernesto, Alberto, and i see|a great idealism, but also a lot of doubts

That's why Im glad that you are going to San Pablo

I think you will find something important there

Important for you

Thanks a lot

- Ok, if you excuse me, i will show you something, ok?|- Another surprise? How many surprises!

- What is he bringing, little on?|- A book

- A book, uh?|- Eat everything Tito, eh?

This is the great love of my life...

"The Stillness of Silence"

I hope you give me the honor of reading it

- Of course, of course|- The honor is ours

You can tell me what you think after

- Yes, of course. Can i open it?|- Yes, yes

- Who dares read it first?

In five more days you'll be in San Pablo

Teacher, thanks a lot for everything, for your kindness,|for the tickets, the cloths, for everything. It's been an honor

Don't worry about anything

Don't you think you are forgetting something?|You've said nothing about my novel

- The novel, Fuser|- Did you read it?|- Of course|-So?

What can i say? I can sincerely tell you that|no one can tell a story like you

It has taken a lot of effort

- And what do you think Ernesto?|- He is fascinated!

If he is fascinated, i would rather to hear it from him

Look Doctor, I feel that your book is a little beaten

I think there are many common places...

- Well, that is not that bad|- No

Basically is poorly written and that makes it hard to read

It's a very good try doctor, but i think you should|focus on what you know best

I'm sorry, teacher. You asked for my opinion|and Im giving it to you

Wao son! No one had been so blunt with me.|You have been the only one. The only one

- Ok, i won't delay you any more, go on.|- Thanks

Good bye and...eternally grateful and forgive me.

Take care!

- Have you seen a bag that was over there?|- No

Don't worry, your friend got really sick

- Yes he did|- He gave me quite a scare

And i, thanks a lot, Miss.

Well a river dolphin, but we call them "bufeo"

Have you ever seen one?

No, never. I heard it, but didn't see it

- I'm going to tell you a secret|- Me?

The bufeo's genitals look like a woman's|and the natives use it to relieve themselves

But there's a little problem, when they are done|they have to kill the animal, because the suffer|contractions so strong that don't let them get out

Miss, no offense but can i ask you something?

Yes

What brings you to these inhospitable waters?
