An Air Force Captain must choose between duty and morals in this tight Chilean thriller set during the military coup


This nail-bitingly tense Chilean thriller takes place on September 11th, 1973, as Captain Jorge Silva (Aron Hernández) receives a life-changing order. He is to transform his training academy into a prison camp and torture centre ahead of the rapidly unfolding military coup d’etat. As the clock ticks louder and louder, the captain must choose between risking his life through disobedience or his soul by compliance. The result is a strikingly shot and paced character study as well as a rare insight into the sombre machinery of military political corruption in South America. (RAFA SALES ROSS)
