Notre avis
Intimate, political, and quietly sublime, The Milk of Sorrow is a beautifully shot story about female identity in war-torn Peru. Emotionally affective all along, the film earned young director Claudia Llosa the first nomination to the Academy Awards® for a Peruvian film. Plus a Golden Bear!
