The last time that the Chilean filmmaker Maite Alberdi came to the Festival, she won the Audience Award for The Mole Agent. This year she’s presenting The Eternal Memory, a documentary about a couple who have to cope with the ravages of Alzheimer’s disease that the husband starts to suffer from. She says that for a documentary-maker, memory provides an indispensable raw material. However, on this occasion it plays a leading role as this film is about someone who is facing up to the loss of his memories. Having said that, she thinks that they have made a film about memory, and not about forgetting. Although it wasn’t the focal point of the film, she recognises that there is an obvious link between the loss of individual memory and the loss of collective memory with regard to Pinochet’s regime, as Augusto Góngora devoted a large part of his life to keeping alive the memory of the opponents of the dictatorship. In addition, this year, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the coup against Allende, there has been a wave of historical denial that has left her utterly confused.
