Description

After 91 years of operation, a camera portrays the last image of the "Nakagawa" photographic studio. Its workers reveal the memory of its founder Masao Nakagawa, a Japanese immigrant, founder of the first photographic studio in northern Peru. This is the portrait of time and the memory of a place condemned to be erased by modernity.
