Yes.

Rest in peace Patricio Guzmán-

And I, you can pro- Yeah, I'm sure you can find it at Scarecrow.

So, uh, Patricio Guzmán, his more recent film, Nostalgial- Nostalgia for the Light is also very-

Mm

Um, at the same time, sort of this question of memory, um, that Carolina raised and, and, and Teresa as well, I think it's really important.

There's a great Chilean documentary filmmaker, Patricio Guzman.

I was watching last night one of his films.

It's called Obstinate Memory.

The filmmaker who shaped how the world saw and would remember the violence of the Pinochet regime in Chile has died.

Patricio Guzman was a titan of documentary film.

His landmark 1975 film The Battle of Chile covered the buildup to the coup that saw Pinochet take power.

His later films made connections between Chile's politics and its vast natural landscapes.

That's never going to happen to any group of humans.

But what needs to happen is that we have to be permanently thinking about that and questing for the best sense that we can have about the past.

When it comes to how Chileans see their own history, their own past, what would you consider Patricio Guzman's legacy to be?

So I feel a little uncomfortable saying that because I'm not a specialist in Chile and I'm not Chilean.

El documentalista chileno Patricio Guzmán, uno de los profesionales más destacados en ese oficio en América Latina, murió ayer en París a los ochenta y cinco años.

Guzmán, cuya salud se había deteriorado, fue autor de La batalla de Chile, una trilogía de seis horas que narra lo ocurrido poco antes del 11 de septiembre de 1973, cuando el presidente Salvador Allende fue derrocado por el general Augusto Pinochet.

A lo largo de su vida, Patricio Guzmán recibió varios galardones como el Premio Nacional de Artes en su país, el Goya en España y el Ojo Dorado en el Festival de Cannes.
