The beautiful film Machuca tells a story of friendship set against the background of Chile in 1970s when Allende was overthrown. It’s not about the politics, but they form a constant background and work their way into everything. The subtlety of the story is what makes it work along with great art direction and wonderful performances from the young cast. A complicated story that humanizes a time and part of the world that I know little about.
