🎬 Memoria Implacable / Relentless Memory (2024) + Q&A
Paula Rodríguez | 2024 | Chile, Argentina | 93' | EN subtitles
The discovery of forgotten archives in a Berlin museum prompts a journey that reveals one of the darkest and most silenced episodes in the history of Chile and Argentina. Margarita, a young Mapuche academic, discovers the testimonies of indigenous people who were deported and stripped of their lands during the military campaigns of the 19th century. Moved by her discovery, she embarks on a journey to retrace the deportation routes that her ancestors took a hundred years ago.
Afterwards, there will be a Q&A session with Ezequiel Menalled (Argentina, 1980), composer of the original score for Relentless Memory. Menalled is a versatile conductor and composer. In 2003 he founded Ensemble Modelo62, a group devoted to the promotion, creation and interpretation of the newest music written; and he has been its artistic director and conductor ever since. He is guest teacher at the Composition Department and Sonology Institute of the Royal Conservatoire The Hague (NL).
