Mi Pais Imaginario

Patrizio Guzman Chili, Frankrijk 2022 83 min.

Award-winning documentary filmmaker Patricio Guzmán has sometimes been referred to as "the cinematic conscience of Chile": for more than 40 years he has documented the turbulent events in his native country. At the age of 81, he made a new documentary about the recent period, which for the first time gives the well-known filmmaker hope. He allows only women to speak, because they play a crucial role in the current revolution that started with protests in 2019. A fascinating, hopeful and passionate insight into an extraordinary country, with the central question: can Chile finally shake off the yoke of dictatorship?
