Why film in Peru? I stopped by a booth at Le Marche du Film at the Cannes Film Festival to talk about what they have to offer filmmakers. At the Cannes Film Festival, they have a market where most countries around the world are represented.

I talked with Carlos Manuel Arca Hoyle, director of Promperú France, about why people should film in western South America.

In this episode, Carlos and I discuss:

  • why film in Peru?;
  • what films people know that were filmed in Peru;
  • the kind of clients in Peru;
  • the most asked question at the festival.
