Our take

A girl named after the “Made in USA” tag on her clothing is just one of many inspired signs of this curious and idiosyncratic village drama by Peruvian Claudia Llosa. Llosa traveled the world with her beguilingly unusual debut and won Berlin’s Golden Bear for her next film, The Milk of Sorrow.
