Memory, violence, and history

Compañero president [mate president](Miguel Littin, 1971) and El diálogo de América [the America's dialogue](Álvaro Covacevich, 1972) present complementary views about the first year of the Popular Unity’s government (1970-1973). In these films, two defenders of the armed struggle confront Allende: Régis Debray and Fidel Castro. Although the goal of the film is to show the via armed and the democratic way how two different strategies, but confluents, both let on the ideological tensions emerged in the left after the Chilean experience.
