The Spiral
1976 · Documentary · 139 min. · France
This film, made with Chris Marker's collaboration, was one of the first to acknowledge what had happened with Chile's Popular Unity government from its triumph in democratic elections in September of 1970 until the coup d' etat that took place three years later. Trying to understand what happened there, the team of directors created a narrative structure that allows merging facts and characters from a historical perspective: the spiral.
