Funeral bearers dance while holding the coffin with the remains of Florentino Jamanca during his funeral in the agricultural town of Humaya in the city of Huacho, about 148 km north of Lima, Peru on May 2, 2024. Some funeral companies began offering this service eight years ago, taking advantage of the fact that in several rural parts of Peru, the farewell to the dead is usually more festive than solemn, explains Alex Canales, director of the company Cargadores Fúnebres de Huacho, one of the pioneers of the business.
