Magaly Solier is promoting her film Lina in Lima, which is being released on March 24 in all theatres nationwide. After learning about this upcoming return of the actress from Ayacucho, many Twitter users have not hesitated to compare her to Stephanie Cayo, highlighting her as a true representative of Andean women.
As you remember, Cayo was described by Vogue magazine as an Andean actress, a fact that unleashed the fury of a lot. This achieved the reaction of the protagonist of Hasta Re-Encounter, who indicated that she did not feel the representative of the Andean woman, however the criticism did not stop.
That is why after the publication on networks of the next screening of Lina in Lima, which stars Magaly Solier, the comparisons disqualifying Maxi Iglesias' boyfriend were not long in coming.
La huantina was asked about it, and this was her response: “Everyone has their way of thinking, of seeing things, I don't get into the thoughts of people who say they don't represent us. Not all Peruvian women are the same and we don't all think the same way and we must respect their way of thinking.” In this way he did not want to stir up the questions any more.
THE CHALLENGES WITH LINA IN LIMA
It should be remembered that 'Lina de Lima' is a film produced between Chile, Peru and Argentina. Magaly Solier tells about the challenges she had to face with her new character.
“The challenge was to compose the songs, the lyrics and, incidentally, to play six characters right there, like Lina from Lima and to separate who Magaly is because dancing and dressing in huge heels was quite a challenge. One of the most difficult challenges because I was afraid of breaking my ankle, imagine,” he said for America Espectáculos.
Lina in Lima is directed by Chilean filmmaker María Paz González. In this production, Magaly Solier will once again surprise with a character out of all stereotypes when she plays a Peruvian woman, a migrant mother in Santiago de Chile, who despite the pain of separation from her family, does not lose strength and joy, immersed in her dreams, the music that connects her with her roots and the need to discover their own identity.
WHAT ROLE DOES MAGALY SOLIER PLAY IN LINA IN LIMA?
Magaly Solier plays Lina, a woman who supports her family remotely, working as a housemaid in the home of a wealthy family in Santiago, Chile. As she prepares her annual trip back to Peru for the end of the year holidays, she discovers that her 16-year-old son no longer misses her as before. Feeling emotionally displaced, she begins to explore her own dreams and desires. The film as its main character, breaks schemes. The story includes fun musical episodes, full of color, in which Magaly Solier sings and dances. Far from being a bitter drama, the film is the intimate portrait of a strong, authentic, lonely and brave woman, who lives her time in her own way, trying to be happy.
The musical component in the film is the key to entering the protagonist's emotional world. Lina is fantastic and daring. Her imaginary universe is full of songs and rhythms that connect her to her land and her emotions. The lyrics were created by the director and José Manuel Gatica; and the renowned Peruvian musician Cali Flores, gave body to Peruvian rhythms. Magaly sings in Quechua and Spanish, she performs everything from boleros, cumbia, huayno, to carols.
WHAT AWARDS HAS LINA WON IN LIMA?
Lina in Lima marks the fiction film debut of María Paz González, who until now had stood out as a documentary filmmaker. The film also features the outstanding performance of Emilia Ossandón, who plays Clara, the girl Lina takes care of in her work. The Chilean-Peruvian-Argentinian production had its world premiere at the Toronto Film Festival, in the Discovery section, dedicated to first films by directors that offer new perspectives of contemporary cinema.
Last year it won, among others, the Best Actress Award for Magaly Solier at the Chilean Film Festival; the award for Best Film, New Directors, at the Cleveland International Film Festival, United States, and the Best Ibero-American Film and Best New Director awards for María Paz González at the Festival International Film of Valdivia, Chile.
MARIA PAZ GONZÁLEZ'S VISION WHEN CREATING LINA IN LIMA
María Paz González says she made the leap to this creation because of her interest in the world of migration.
“I started to investigate in a fairly documentary way. And I decided to make a fiction because while I was reviewing references, I found a very condemned representation of the migrant, very limited to stagnant characters, without dreams, paralyzed. Films where Peruvian employees only say “yes, madam; no, ma'am”, and that didn't match what she saw in karaoke, religious celebrations, parties,” said the director.
