Peru to seek a new Oscar nomination for the best film in a foreign language with the tape 'NN' by Héctor Gálvez.
To get it, It would be the second candidacy for the South American country that already opted for the statuette in 2010 with Claudia Llosa's 'The scared tit', but finally it was another Spanish-language film that won the award, the Argentine 'The secret of their eyes' by Juan José Campanella.
'NN' reaches the Oscar preselection for best foreign language film after winning it director award at the Cartagena Film Festival, the Cartagena de Indias pageant and after going through the North American Palm Springs Festival this year.
This new work by Hector Gálvez, the second fiction feature film after 'Paraíso', tells the story of the remains of a male disappeared during the political violence that have been exhumed but no one claims them. Now the only thing that counts to be identified is a blurred photograph of a smiling girl found under his shirt.
