Noticiero Cultural Vicus

1983, Spanish. Directed by Silvia Kantor-Palant.

The VICUS Cultural Cinematic Newsreel, composed of thirty short films each containing three segments, and MUJER, HOY (WOMAN, TODAY), composed of four short films also with three segments each and a total runtime of approximately five minutes, were both shot on 35mm color film. These were the first newsreels to focus exclusively on cultural content. The diverse appearances and contributions of notable figures in the VICUS and MUJER, HOY collections represent a valuable resource for researchers across various disciplines. They contribute to a deeper understanding of Peru’s cultural memory, serving as a fundamental structure of national identity. The preservation and digitization of these films will allow for exhibitions, forums, and screenings across disciplines such as history, sociology, and anthropology—especially given the scarcity or complete lack of audiovisual material related to renowned visual artists, theater performers, and works that are part of this cultural memory.
