Biography
Alberto Kenya Fujimori served as President of Peru from 28 July 1990 to 17 November 2000. A controversial figure, Fujimori has been credited with uprooting terrorism in Peru and restoring its macroeconomic stability, though his methods have drawn charges of authoritarianism and human rights violations. Even amidst his 2008 prosecution for crimes against humanity relating to his presidency, two-thirds of Peruvians polled voiced approval for his leadership in that period.

The Last Hour
A character-driven, political-thriller documentary that explores the volatile events that defined Alberto Fujimoris decade-long reign of Peru: His meteoric rise from son of poor Japanese immigrants to the presidency; his fateful relationship with the shadowy and Machiavellian Vladimiro Montesinos; his self-coup that dissolved overnight both Congress and the Judiciary.

Families remember. The prosecutor warns of imminent danger. Victims and citizens share experiences, feelings, and warnings about a regime seeking to perpetuate itself once again. The daughter's crimes are added to the father's burden. Voices from the present and the past intertwine in a country that seems eternally condemned to suffer the same dynasty time and time again.
Never again, Mrs. K
An overflowing work of audiovisual appropriation that resignifies images and sounds from the political world and television spectacle of Peru, mainly from the nineties. A compilation that subverts and looks squarely at the portrait of a country that appears deformed and monstrous on the screens of trash television

Metadocumental - Alberto Fujimori - Volumen 1
What is the name of the regime that disappears people, that closes the media, that has drug trafficking allies as its main advisers, that sterilizes women without consulting them, that kills journalists, that persecutes you with SUNAT, that denigrates you with headlines, who corrupts opposition politicians and buys them for their purposes, who fills you with scary speeches day and night, who has entered the government to steal, to loot, to burden the country by weight, to flee to Japan and to resign from there? This regime is called Fujimori. It is time to remember what that dictatorship was like, which has been washing its face for a quarter of a century. It is time to remember that Keiko Fujimori was not outside the dictatorship but participated in it. He fed on her. Because Keiko Fujimori is the most ambitious and wicked version of her father. We have to ask ourselves if we will be up to the task so that we are not the sad and submissive version of Peru in the early nineties.
