A star rating of 4 out of 5.
Trevor Johnston
This Chilean drama charts the events of the titular year, when the Pinochet regime ruthlessly tightened its grip on political dissent. The focus of the story is wealthy surgeon's wife Carmen (Aline Küppenheim), who is initially most concerned with perfecting the colour scheme in her family's beachfront second home. But her priorities change when a local priest persuades her to look after a young man who may just be a leftist insurgent, and Carmen's desire to help soon puts her in danger from security services. Sporting an array of fabulous vintage outfits, Küppenheim delivers a subtly commanding performance as the trophy wife whose true, heroic self is revealed in a time of need. Writer/director Manuela Martelli controls the escalating tension to nail-biting effect, assisted by a truly unsettling 70s synth score by Maria Portugal. At times playing out like a suspense thriller, the film builds to a memorably rousing climax.
