Instead, El Ultimo Bastión amazes and excites us from the depth of the script, and the exquisite way of representing the complex Latin American culture at the dawn of independence.
THE LAST BASTION TV SERIES SERIES
These series also use obscene violence too insistently to excite the viewer. Unlike Escobar and the Peruvian series, it avoids falling into the morbid and easy apology of crime as a tool for attracting an audience. Of all of them, the Peruvian proposal is distinguished by its cultural thickness, its intellectual depth and the detailed reconstruction of the material culture of the time, as well as a remarkable cast. Peru has played hard to compete with the great productions of other Latin American countries, broadcast worldwide by this platform: Venezuela (Bolívar), Colombia (Escobar, the patron of evil) and Argentina ( The Marginal). Peru’s passionate love for its cultural heritage is subtly displayed throughout this work (paradoxically, they forgot to mention Peruvian pisco). The fortress of El Callao and the colonial houses of Lima, with their balconies, offer an elegant and glamorous setting, together with the cane mats, the woven wickers, the indigenous handicrafts To this is added the Peruvian gastronomy, especially the Causa Limeña, the anticuchos, the picarones and the artisan ice creams, then called “nieves”.
The proposal shines for its constant desire to make visible the identity and cultural heritage of Peru, including architecture and gastronomy. It is an ambitious series, in which Peruvian filmmakers, actors, screenwriters and artists have played hard to put their country back at the center of Latin American culture, as in the golden era of the Viceroyalty of Peru. Through the Netflix platform, the Peruvian television masterpiece, El Último Bastión, has begun to be broadcast in Chile and the world.
