Nostalgia For The Light Screening + Q&A with Patricio Guzman in London on Feb 2nd

@whatslater

There will be a London Premiere for Nostalgia for the Light, the new film from Patricio Guzman – and one that featured in many Best of 2011 lists – on February 2nd that will be followed by a Q&A with Guzman himself.

Patricio Guzmán (Battle For Chile, Salvador Allende, The Pinochet Case) is one of the legends of documentary. Nostalgia For The Light is his latest film, a visionary masterpiece for our time set in Chile’s Atacama Desert. There, people search the past to understand the present: while women comb through the sands for remains of loved ones “disappeared” by the Pinochet regime, astronomers peer into the cosmos to solve the riddle of the beginning of life.
