Il cileno film inspired by Aldo Marín to release in Italy

The historical drama ‘Il cileno’, directed by Sergio Castro-San Martín, is scheduled for release in Italian cinemas on August 27, 2026, distributed by Fandango. The film was previously showcased at the 79th Locarno Film Festival.

Loosely inspired by the true story of Aldo Marín, the narrative follows a miner who flees the Pinochet regime in Chile to seek refuge in Turin, Italy, in 1976. While attempting to rebuild his life, Marín becomes entangled in the political tensions of the era, utilizing his expertise in explosives for local anarchist groups.

The film stars Camilo Arancibia as Aldo Marín and Sara Serraiocco as Luciana, a doctor involved in clandestine abortions. Production for the film took place across Italy, Switzerland, and Chile.
