Nothing is left but our tenderness

About This Movie

So, there's this 2017 documentary called 'Nothing is left but our tenderness' that really dives deep into the aftermath of Peru's armed conflict. It’s set against the stark beauty of the Andes, which adds a haunting atmosphere to the whole experience. The pacing is quite reflective, almost meditative at times, as the film unfolds through personal stories and fragmented memories. What stands out is how it leans into tenderness as a theme, almost like a balm for the scars of history. The performances are raw and sincere, not overly polished, which somehow makes it feel even more authentic. It's definitely not your flashy documentary; it’s more about the quiet moments that linger and resonate.
