Unearthing Lima’s Sonic and Poetic Landscapes (2024)

30 min / 2024 / NORIENT

Episode 17 of the TIMEZONES podcast series, co-initiated and co-produced by Norient and the Goethe-Institut. This episode looks into artistic ruptures and subjectivities in Lima, Perú, forged during a period of authoritarianism, economic recession, and widespread social hopelessness to understand the cyclical nature of Peruvian politics. It revisits the Peruvian subte (underground) scene, which created a space for young people to channel their frustrations through music.
