My Imaginary Country

Mi país imaginario

Patricio Gúzman

An homage to Patricio Guzmán (1941-2026), who documented, for the first time and step by step, a Latin American revolution in The Battle of Chile. In his last film, he was still a passionate chronicler, seeing hope in the protest movement. “October 2019: an unexpected revolution, a social turmoil. A million and a half people demonstrated in the streets of Santiago, demanding more democracy, a better life, a better education and health system, and a new Constitution. Chile had recovered its memory… What I had been waiting for since my student struggles in 1973 had finally become reality”. Patricio Guzmán
