The Condor Daughter - Director Alvaro Olmos Torrico

Bolivia’s entry for the 2027 Academy Award for Best International Feature Film, THE CONDOR DAUGHTER, tells the story of Clara, a teenager growing up in a small indigenous community high in the Andes. Her adoptive mother, a midwife who took her in as a baby, has taught her the ancient songs used to guide women through childbirth, melodies passed down for generations, believed to bring new life safely into the world. But while her voice carries on this tradition, her dreams lie elsewhere: she longs to leave the mountains behind and become a folkloric music star in the big city. Director, writer and co-editor Alvaro Olmos Torrico joins us for a lively conversation on his latest work.

About the filmmaker - Álvaro Olmos Torrico was born in Cochabamba, Bolivia. His debut feature, “Wiñay” (2019), was among the first Bolivian films to be released globally via Amazon Prime. He has produced both documentaries and fiction features, including “The Ones from Below” by Alejandro Quiroga (Mar del Plata IFF, 2022) and “The Visitor” by Martín Boulocq (Tribeca, 2022). He is the founder of BoliviaCine.com, the first SVOD platform dedicated to Bolivian cinema, and has taught at the Bolivian Private University and the Andean School of Cinematography. “The Condor Daughter” is his second feature film and was awarded in the Work in Progress sections of Ventana Sur and Cinélatino Toulouse during its development.
