Durak, Didem2023-10-192023-10-1920132159-24112158-8724https://doi.org/10.5195/cinej.2013.71https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12469/5583The aim of this paper is to analyze the diverse abstract and cinematic approaches that Guzman uses to build an image of the issues in contemporary Chile. I argue that Guzman's documentary investigates the consequences of the dictatorship and the obscurity of constructing a collective memory of the events that happened during and after the coup. In this study, I elaborate on the elements of the film such as sound, evidence, narration, etc. I explore the form and the style as well as the text and the content related choices of filmmaker. Whenever possible the analysis here is supported by a shot by shot or sequential analysis.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNostalgia for the Light: a 'documemory and the Conflict Between History and MemoryArticle12613922WOS:00044691830000810.5195/cinej.2013.712
