Summary
In this hour-long documentary, our star, the charismatic Lalo Izquierdo (master dancer, percussionist, choreographer, and folklorist of his Afro-Peruvian community), leads us on a journey of discovery of a little-known community with strong parallels to African Americans. Ably supported by the group “de Rompe y Raja,” the performance, Izquierdo?s interviews, demonstrations of percussion instruments, on-location footage, plus the host?s narrative explore the music, dance and culture of Peruvians of African descent, as well as their music?s links to Latin jazz.. Filmed in Peru and the United States..
