CLEVER MONKEY PINOCHET

SYNOPSIS

Thirty years after the military coup, Perut and Osnovikoff propose to several groups of Chilean students to recount in their own voices this crucial moment in Chile’s history. Young children, teenagers and university students improvise stagings that reveal the liquid and multifaceted nature of memory. The film follows the flow of their seemingly disparate narratives casually mixing the innocence and humor of childhood playground with the brutality of a confronted society. The result is a cinematic mosaic that, talking about the past, gives account of contemporary Chile.
