The doctest for the Shapefile function includes this line:

   >>> shp = Shapefile(base='/home/mapnik/data',file='world_borders')

This tells you "base" is a path, and "file" is your shapefile.

In your code below, you're using the full path of the shapefile for both
parameters. Fortunately, your code already seems to provide both required
inputs. Try changing this line:

lyr.datasource = mapnik.Shapefile(base=filepath, file=filepath)

...to:

lyr.datasource = mapnik.Shapefile(base=ruta, file=filename)
