Eternal Memory tells the story of five years in the life of Augusto Góngora, a journalist who fought against the Chilean dictatorship. Directed by Chilean Maite Alberdi, it depicts the progression of Alzheimer's disease within a couple who strive day after day to keep the flame of their love intact.
“The film has become a metaphor for the loss of memory of an entire country, through what happens to GóNGora,” says the director. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival where his story won the top prize for documentaries.
