A three-part documentary, made from 1973 to 1979, which follows the events that preceded the fall of president Salvador Allende, in Chile. A work of political analysis, the film caused various problems for its five filmmakers: they were arrested by the Chilean police, and one of them - the camera operator - was reported missing after his arrest, and the 20 hours of filming done in the country had to be smuggled out to be edited in Cuba. Awarded in Grenoble, Leipzig, Brussels, and Benalmadena.
