The Businessman
Music
In 1976, while he was taking his grandchildren to school, a businessman was kidnapped by a guerrilla organization. Two months later, the army broke into the house in which he was being held captive in order to release him. That same day, one of the guerrillas was abducted and disappeared by the civic-military dictatorship. Decades later, the director of this film, and the son of that guerrilla man, meets to talk with the businessman’s son and grandsons. The Businessman is made up of talks, but also of magazines, poster, flyers, photographs, newspapers, ads, home movies and objects that are also the testimony of a time; its editing makes personal memories intertwine with the story, and in it, the question of the relationship between who’s filming and who’s being filmed becomes inescapable.

The Unspeakable
Cinematography
In November 1974, the Principal of a small school in Santiago was kidnapped and taken to a detention centre by State agents, who accused her of belonging to the Revolutionary Left Movement (MIR). Her account, more than a memory of her stay in a clandestine centre, is focused on the impossibility of narrating an experience like this. The torture experience is inaccessible. There are no images or words which can represent it.
