The Principal Enemy (1974)

In the remote Andean highlands of Peru, a tight-knit indigenous peasant community has endured generations of brutal exploitation by local landowners. When a shocking act of violence exposes the complete failure of the official justice system to protect them, the villagers’ simmering anger pushes them toward a crossroads.
