| For his new fiIm master director Patricio Guzmán, famed for his political documentaries (THE BATTLE OF CHlLE, SALVADOR ALLENDE), travels 10,000 feet above sea leveI to the driest pIace on earth, the Atacama Desert, where atop the mountains astronomers from all over the world gather to observe the stars. The sky is so transIucent that it alIows them to see right to the boundaries of the universe. The Atacama is also a place where the harsh heat of the sun keeps human remains intact: those of Pre-CoIumbian mummies; 19th century explorers and miners; and the remains of political prisoners, disappeared by the ChiIean army after the miIitary coup of September, 1973. So whiIe astronomers examine the most distant and oldest gaIaxies, at the foot of the mountains, women, surviving reIatives of the disappeared whose bodies were dumped here, search, even after twenty-five years, for the remains of their loved ones, to recIaim their families histories. Melding the celestial quest of the astronomers and the earthly one of the women, NOSTALGlA FOR THE LIGHT is a gorgeous, moving, and deeply personal odyssey. |
