Pinochet

About This Movie

So, "Pinochet" is a documentary that really digs into this intense period of Chilean history, you know? It captures the Second Independence of Chile, and the way it intertwines images and videos from both before and after that fateful day in '73 is striking. The pacing feels deliberate—almost contemplative, which suits the heavy themes it tackles. The film doesn’t just throw facts at you; it gives a visceral sense of how political upheaval ripples through society. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and the archival footage is raw. Not sure who directed it, but there's a real sense of authenticity in the way the stories are presented, making it stand out in the sea of historical docs.
