Santiago, Italia

Reviews told me that was a impartial movie. But there is no impartiality. The left wing director listen only 2 militaries, and with bias. Everybody that studies history knows that Allend intended create a marxist dictatorship.

Extremely one sided, paints Allende as a victim when he was just an incompetent leader who destroyed the country, then another evil fixed his mess. There are no heroes in either side, just two sides lying their teeth out about each other, they were all wrong and still to this date blame each other. This film is one of those sides where you can evidently see all the cuts made during the military officials interview, leaves anyone with critical thinking skills wondering what did he say that was cut out? Total biased trash.

Evil begot evil and that's just a recipe for never-ending hateful society still hurting each other.

Almost half a century later, this documentary commemorates the end of the Allende government and The Pinochet's coup d'etat, in the form of interviews with exiled Chileans. Informative (even if the testimonies unfortunately corroborate everything I already knew) and moving.

To Mr lusilva-80976. The director himself, just into the movie, clearly says that he is NOT impartial. I did love the movie and admired the attitude. On your point of view probably I must be a leftist. Right.

"Santiago, Italia" is not a documentary, not only at least. It talks about people, their stories, their memories, their struggles. It talks about the importance and the value of hospitality and fraternity towards those who are around us. And, of course, it talks about the ignoble military coup in Chile against a democratically elected government, an episode that is too often forgotten - also due to precise international political reasons - that should deserve way more attention. The point of view of Moretti Is obvious since the beginning of the movie, but is never too biased (it interviews also some members of the military coup), and it is only toward the end of the movie that it becomes clear what are the real messages that the Italian film-maker wants to deliver to the viewer. Last, but not least, everything is embedded by a subtle, soft critique to the modern social and economic system, that forces us to rethink about some priorities and believes of our life. A gem.
