The Milk of Sorrow
La teta asustada
A withdrawn young Peruvian woman believes she has inherited her mother's terror — the fear passed down from the years of political violence — through her breast milk, and lives paralyzed by dread until she must venture out to bury her mother. Claudia Llosa's haunting, Oscar-nominated drama.
