Sort of a postmodern national anthem that
tries to demystify what we erroneously assume as national
identity. In this way, Peru is not what the communication
media have been broadcasting. The work portraits a mega
diverse, multicultural and multiethnic country, ending
with a subversive dose (the burnt of the national flag).
