Gregorio is a peruvian movie from 1984 produced by Grupo Chaski, which was founded in 1982 by Alejandro Legaspi, Stefan Kaspar, Fernando Espinoza, Fernando Barreto y María Barea.[1] Marino León de la Torre is the leading actor.
Gregorio is a Quechua boy who migrates with his family from a small village in the Andes to the capital. In Lima he experiences the cultural clash between the Andean world and the chaotic and violent urban world.
In 2019, the restoration of the films Gregorio and Juliana by Guarango was announced, and their subsequent re-release at the Lima Film Festival.[2]
Plot
[edit]Gregorio's father decides to leave his village to look for a better life in the city. After getting a job, he calls the rest of the family (Gregorio and his wife) but, soon after, he loses his job and falls ill. Homeless, the three are forced to take part in an invasion of Villa El Salvador. They settle there. Soon after, their father dies. After his death, Gregorio is forced to work on the streets as a shoeshine boy. At first, he remains close to his mother; however, when she starts a new relationship with a neighbour, Gregorio feels betrayed and distances himself from her. He then joins a group of street children who live together in an abandoned tram: Chollo, Tachuela, Retacito and Gitano, who work as street performers while committing thefts. In their company, Gregorio ventures into the criminal side of street life.
