Its complex canvas is woven with the greatest simplicity. For forty years, Patricio Guzman has had to struggle every inch of the way, with a vivid memory and intimate suffering to reach this work of cosmic serenity, of luminous intelligence, with a sensitivity that could melt stone. At such a level, the film becomes more than a film. An insane accolade to mankind, a stellar song for the dead, a life lesson.
Silence and respect. I don't know how you can put more into a film, or make one that's more deeply moving. Violeta Berrios Self as Self. More like this. Watch options. Storyline Edit.

To evolve as an intellectual species. To live and learn. Astronomers magnify their tender visions towards the stars, attempting to acquire omniscient knowledge for the origins of life. Stars that, whilst illuminate the night sky with faint glimmers of freedom, have since perished. The light of a past life, gliding across space and time.
Observatories prevailing the mountainous peaks of the Chilean deserts, never glancing down on the arid ground. Advanced embedding details, examples, and help! The desert sky is so translucent that it allows them to see right to the boundaries of the universe.
