"This is a huge story wrapped around surprising characters and finely wrought details. This film has it all: The composition of the frame is delicious. The sound design is elegant and surprising. And the editing tells this story so economically it takes your breath away. This is true cinema where dramatic problems are solved with evocative images and sound. The directors also were the crew. Alberto Herskovits was behind the camera. Mikael Wistrom recorded and designed the sound and they both share the editing credit. With FAMILIA, they have proven they are masters of it all."
Jury verdict, DOXA Film Festival, Vancouver

"This is about as smart and air-tight as narrative verite filmmaking gets... It's a compact epic that speaks for itself. I will say that for its craft and verisimilitude, it could be pre-sold as a narrative film and I don't think anyone would blink. That's a compliment."
Vadim Rizov , Slant Magazine, USA

A poignant, universally accessible documentary.
Alissa Simon, Variety, USA

"FAMILIA is both art and reality... Moving like a fairy tail and touching like a greek drama. With all it's realism it constitutes what real art is all about: after watching this film you are a different person.
Tobias W Lindquist, Film.nu

"Beautifully shot, with startling access to the family, this is documentary craft of the first order... This is the poetry of real life and the sort of film that eschews simple lecturing (about globalization, third world economies, spousal abuse) in favor of the far stronger delivery of a story well told." David Wilson , Director of True/False Film Festival, USA

de flesta av oss som kommer från fattigdom och lever i ett annat land känner sig igen i denna film, jag gör det . Den är en underbar film som måste ses.

Hope to watch it, you should promote it into the peruvian national tv, it's got great chances to get the consideration it deserves and from there into the Latinamerican area. Good work.
