"Patricio Guzmán's documentary shows a moving history of the people of Patagonia and Chile reminding us that human suffering and injustice go beyond political and social systems. Using water not only as a symbolic tool but also as a natural element it puts the concrete story of the region's victims, including pre-colonial indigenous persons and those who opposed Pinochet's regime, into the vast perspective of humankind."

We all come from the sea. The ocean is the origin of life and keeps our memories and secrets. Patricio Guzmán's film The Pearl Button proposes that water not only has memory but also has a voice.
