The Eternal Memory

Maite Alberdi | Chile | 2023 | doc | 84 min | Spanish | e.s.

A loving couple, Augusto and Paulina are both living with the effects of his Alzheimer's disease. Two public figures in Chile, both linked by their work to their country's recent (violent) history. Paulina is an actress and was also Minister of Culture for several years. As a (television) journalist, Augusto documented the crimes of the Pinochet regime. He emphasized that not only numbers and statistics are important, but also feelings and traumas: emotional memory.

The intensely intimate moments shared by these two individuals, with sadness and humor, give this
documentary a power and radiance not often seen. Memory, after all, is an indispensable and essential part of human functioning in the puzzle of everyday life. When the functioning of memory stagnates or breaks down, reality becomes foggy, unclear, and distant. A movie not to be forgotten.
