Pirú: A Golden Journey (Spanish: Pirú: Un viaje de oro) is a 2023 Peruvian comedy-drama film directed and edited by Bismarck Rojas (in his directorial debut)[1] who co-wrote with Sara Rojas.[2] It stars Emmanuel Soriano and Andrés Salas accompanied by the debutants Mateo Castrejón and María Teresa Tello.[3] It premiered on October 5, 2023, in Peruvian theaters.[4]

Alí travels with his best friend José María to the mountains of Peru for work. Near their destination, their car loses control and crashes in the countryside of Hermelinda, a renegade old woman who lives in the town of Quri Suncu. This chance meeting between the young people and the local people begins a relationship that, although it begins with some rejection, becomes friendship. The real conflict comes when Alí and José María discover that the job they have gone to do consists of moving their new friends from their homes to start a new mining project.[5][6]
