INTRODUCING FILMS FROM CHILE'S SOCIAL UPRISING " ESTALLIDO SOCIAL"
With films by Constanza Liberona, Isidora Torrealba y Ricardo A. Ferreira O.
Chile's "Estadillo Social" or social uprising took place between 2019-2020, however the repercussions in the country continue to be felt in the present. The arrival to power of leftist candidate and former student activist, Gabriel Boric, the youngest president the country has ever had (elected at only 35 years old) and the repeated attempts to establish a new constitution written by the people, are signs that there is a new mentality that seeks to free itself from the oppression generated during the coup d'état in 1973 and subsequent dictatorship orchestrated by the CIA and the US government.
The three films in this series show from different lenses, what occurred during the height of this revolt.
