Summary
Chaupi Mundi - The Heart of the World
Elena on the run. In order to save her best friend Pancha, who′s in fact a little pig, twelve-year-old Elena leaves her home in the Andean Highlands in Ecuador ... In this "road movie" for children as well as for adults, life comes to the magic world of the mountains that are both mortal and divine beings.
Surprising insights into a foreign land, into the daily life of the Olavalenos, the crafts, the traditions, the modern age, but also into the world of legends and myths. Chaupi Mundi - The Heart of the World not only widens the interest for other worlds but also provokes questions at the same time about the European understanding for, and way of dealing with, our environment. A plea for respect of one′s own culture and that of the "alien" culture. The heart of the world is everywhere.
