| On September 11, in 1973, a miIitary coup Ied by General Augusto Pinochet overthrew ChiIe s democraticaIIy eIected sociaIist government of SaIvador AIlende. Responsible for the torture and death of thousands of his opponents, Pinochet ruIed Chile untiI 1990, and retired from poIitics in 1998 with legaI immunity granted by his seIf-designated position as senator for Iife. From the legendary ChiIean fiImmaker Patricio Guzman (NOSTALGlA FOR THE LIGHT, THE BATTLE OF CHlLE) comes THE PlNOCHET CASE, a masterful Iook at the dramatic 1998 arrest of Pinochet whiIe on a shopping spree in London after a Spanish judge issued a warrant charging him with human rights vioIations. Guzman details the precedent-setting legal efforts to make the tyrant answer for his crimes. EquaIIy important is the pIatform the film gives many of the survivors who recount egregious human rights abuses that have gone unpunished for nearIy three decades. |
