CLACS Shifting Landscapes Film Series - "El Conde"

In El Conde (The Count) Pablo Larrain "is doing the important historical work of responding to the gross absurdity not just of the dictatorship, but of those in Chile who refuse to stop honoring the dictatorship.

That Pinochet continues to live on, both in the hearts of Chilean elites as well as in the rhetoric, memes and T-shirts of fascists in the U.S., shows that it’s all the more necessary to laugh at, illustrate and try to understand the monstrous past and present that continue to feed him our blood." -New Lines Magazine
