Icarus Films is proud to announce
the North American theatrical
release of a new 2K restoration
of The Battle of Chile (La
batalla de Chile, 1975-1979),
by master documentarian Patricio
Guzmán,
considered one of the greatest
documentaries ever made
(Time Out and Sight & Sound).
On September 11, 1973,
President Salvador Allende's
democratically-elected Chilean
government was overthrown
in a bloody coup by General
Augusto Pinochet's army.
Patricio Guzmán and five
colleagues
had been filming the political
developments in Chile
throughout the nine months
leading up to that day.
The bombing of the Presidential
Palace, during which Allende died,
would now become the ending for
Guzman's
seminal documentary The Battle
of Chile,
an epic chronicle of that
country's open and peaceful socialist revolution,
and of the violent
counter-revolution against it.
Now restored, The Village Voice
called it,
"The major political film of our
time,"
and the San Francisco Chronicle
wrote,
"A landmark in the presentation
of living history on film."
