Today in class, we watched  Chile, The Obstinate Memory, which explored themes like memory, history, and the preservation of both. I like how the documentary showed how people in Chile are still dealing with the painful memories of the dictatorship under Pinochet, especially the violence and disappearances that occurred during that time. The film shows how some people want to forget the past, while others believe it’s important to remember to seek justice and avoid repeating the same mistakes. The film did a great job at highlighting how memory can be a powerful tool for healing and understanding, even when the truth is difficult to face.
