AricaDoc International Documentary Film Festival

Overview

The AricaDoc International Documentary Film Festival is celebrating its 10th anniversary in Arica, Chile. The festival features nine days of free programming, running from October 23 to October 31, supported by the Ministry of Culture, Arts and Heritage, the Municipality of Arica, and the University of Tarapacá.

During the festival's opening, filmmaker Ignacio Agüero received a career achievement award, presented as a scale replica of the ‘presencias tutelares’, a local symbol inspired by geoglyphs. Agüero, who participated in the festival's inaugural edition, presented his latest film, ‘Cartas a mis padres muertos’. In discussions, Agüero addressed the role of artificial intelligence in filmmaking, stating that “absolutely everything is documentable” and that there are no limits. He noted that his work is driven by specific images or situations rather than current political or social trends.

Other scheduled highlights include the screening of ‘Descomedidos y Chascones’ by Carlos Flores, a film originally censored in 1973, and a performance by Flores. Additional programming includes ‘Esa otra selva blanca’ by Teresa Arredondo and the co-production ‘Estados Generales’ by Mauricio Freyre, which explores neocolonial structures through the history of seed transfers between Madrid and Peru.
