CALLE 13’s “SIN MAPA” Is Released TODAY – Available on DVD and By Download at iTunes

In Their First Film Documentary, The Socially Outspoken And Critically Praised GRAMMY Winners From Puerto Rico Take Viewers Along On A South American Journey “Without A Map” That Looks To Shed The Trappings of Modern Celebrity In Order To Find The True Indigenous Music, Culture And Spirit of A Continent

“Over two years ago, the members of Calle 13 began to speak of film they had compiled from their visits to diverse indigenous communities in Latin America…  They were not yet sure how they would share it with the public, but the emotion they showed when referring to the work reflected that they had something special in their hands.  With the release today of the documentary Sin Mapa, let’s just say it was worth the wait…  Calle 13 presents an artistic work as prominent as their music…  Residente is humorous, critical, and direct in expressing a deep and intelligent message.  “Sin Mapa” is an excellent answer to those that still wonder how Calle 13 has reached so many achievements with its music in so little time.  It shows the heart of this young group that has found in their art, a path without restrictions…. and demonstrates human vulnerability in the face of the forces of nature which are far more powerful than fame”. – El Nuevo Dia (translated)

“Sin Mapa” Is Already Being Hailed By Critics As A Raw, Fascinating, And Brilliant Spiritual Journey

“Calle 13 singer René (Residente) Pérez guides us through the duo’s fascinating journey to learn about peoples across South America, from potato farmers in the island of Amantaní in Peru’s Lake Titicaca to the Creole-speaking residents of Palenque, a Colombian town settled by freed slaves. Filled with scathing commentary about U.S. policy toward the region, “Sin Mapa” is like Calle 13’s music, unexpectedly brilliant.”

– New York Daily News

“With ‘Sin Mapa,’ Calle 13 reaffirms its commitment to the underprivileged… ‘Sin Mapa’ documents the travels of Calle 13 through poor and indigenous communities of Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, Nicaragua and Argentina, giving a sample of the commitment that this duo has toward communities of scarce resources”- Associated Press

“Calle 13’s journey through South America [is] a raw look inside the daily life of indigenous culture and art.”

- MTV Tr3s

‘In the tradition of their irreverent music and innovative videos, Calle 13‘s original documentary follows the Puerto Rican hip-hop duo’s spiritual journey through the high plains of Bolivia and Peru.” – All Movie Guide“
