Synopsis:
The Road to Q’ero: a Journey Home, explores the transformative journey of a New York family traveling with Lorenzo, an Andean priest (or paqo), back to his homeland in a remote part of Peru. The travelers are Iva, a film producer and writer living on a sustainable farm in New York’s Hudson Valley; her son Jack, a NYC filmmaker/photographer; his girlfriend Julie, teacher and linguist; and family friend Katherine, a researcher and recent college graduate from university in England. They have been invited by the Q’ero to do something unprecedented, something that had never before been offered to anyone: to enter with cameras and film the sacred initiation ceremonies of these famously reclusive people. The Q’ero, descendants of the Incas, are a culture living with deep connections to the workings of Mama Pacha (Mother Earth), and Pacha Mama, who is the Cosmic Mother; their traditions are thousands of years old. In the 1500’s, when the Spanish invaded, the Q’ero escaped back to their homeland, 16,000 feet up in an isolated part of the Peruvian Andes, and they remained there, allowing themselves to maintain their traditions undiluted. With no connection to the outside world (including no roads, cars, or electricity), time basically stood still for the Q’ero. On this unchartered adventure through the Sacred Valley of the Incas and culminating in a journey on foot and horseback to Q’ero, the travelers are invited to participate in the Q’ero’s ancient rituals, including their karpays – a series of sacred ceremonies that are an exchange of energy and a bestowal of power of the ancient linage. The group experiences these often-rigorous ceremonies, reconnecting them to the elements: the stars, wind, water, lake, moon, the sun, and the Incas. As they progress both higher up physically and deeper in spiritually, the travelers learn that are in fact being initiated into the mystical ways of the Q’ero, and they discover the real reason these shy and humble people unexpectedly opened their ancient doors to them: they must be qualified to deliver a message the Q'ero urgently want to share with a western world they feel is in great peril. As we journey with this group on a powerful adventure they could have never have foreseen or predicted, we witness their transformation, both as a family and as individuals, and finally, their reconnective journey back to themselves and to the planet. They will return home carrying a message from the Q’ero, and delivered in the form of this documentary film, which may be one of the most important messages our struggling planet can receive.
