Room 312 | R.W. Corns Building

6:30 p.m. Nov. 5 – OWU’s Hispanic Film Festival presents a screening and discussion of “The Death of Pinochet,” in Room 312 of the R.W. Corns Building, 78 S. Sandusky St., Delaware. On Dec. 10, 2006, General Pinochet dies unexpectedly in Santiago’s Military Hospital. For 24 hours, his death reawakens the political divisions that marked Chile’s recent history with death and violence. Using original footage and the testimonies of four characters who lived through the day, this 2011 film by directors Ivan Osnovikoff and Bettina Perut relates the end of a key chapter in Chile’s history. (Spanish with English subtitles.) The festival is hosted by Ohio Wesleyan’s Department of Modern Foreign Languages, Spanish Program, in collaboration with the Film Studies Program, Latin American Studies Program, Global Studies Institute, and VIVA Latinx student organization. Admission is free. For more information, contact faculty member Eva Paris at eeparish@owu.edu.
