His son is part of the modern world: he uses cameras and drones in order to create the digital model of a church on a computer. Separated by the mysterious death of the wife/mother figure in the family, these men do not connect. And yet their paths cross in a ghostly manner, as do their professions: each in their own way works with textures and volumes, sensations and perceptions.[5] ## Cast - Dionicio Huaraccallo Idme - Moisés Jiménez Carbajal - Julio Carcausto Larito - Mayra Ferrer ## Release *Open-Pit* had its world premiere on January 26, 2023, at the 52nd [International Film Festival Rotterdam](/source/International_Film_Festival_Rotterdam) as part of the Bright Future section,[6] then screened on April 22, 2023, at the 45th [Moscow International Film Festival](/source/Moscow_International_Film_Festival),[7] on August 17, 2023, at the [27th Lima Film Festival](/source/27th_Lima_Film_Festival),[8] on September 2, 2023, at the Cinemancia Metropolitan Film Festival,[9] on October 6, 2023, at the [52nd Festival du nouveau cinéma](/source/2023_Festival_du_nouveau_cin%C3%A9ma)[10] and on November 26, 2023, at the 41st [Torino Film Festival](/source/Torino_Film_Festival).[11] ## Accolades Year Award / Festival Category Recipient Result Ref. 2023 27th Lima Film Festival Made in Peru - Audience Award Open-Pit [12][13] Ministry of Culture Jury Award for Best Peruvian Film CINETRAB Award for Best Fiction 52nd Festival du nouveau cinéma New Alchemists Prize - Honorable Mention [14] 10th Huánuco Film Festival Best Peruvian Fiction Feature Film [15] 41st Torino Film Festival Best International Documentary Film [16][17] 2024 15th APRECI Awards Best Peruvian Feature Film [18] Best Director Felipe Esparza Pérez ## References 1.
