'Meshes of the Afternoon' Enters the Realm of Sci-Fi

Chile: Order Work Obedience
Swiss television documentary on the first years of the dictatorship, filmed (in color) in 1977 by a team led by director André Gazut and journalist Claude Smadja. Strongly critical of authoritarianism and the failures of the economic model that was beginning to be adopted, the report shows different aspects of the ideological and technical implementation of the military government. From the purge in universities to the precariousness of the Minimum Employment Program, from the revenge of employers in the countryside to the lamentable composition of the constitutional commission, the show is full of conversations with personalities close to the regime (Jaime Guzmán, Maximilianio Errázuriz, Manuel Valdés, Ruy Barbosa, Arturo Fontaine Aldunate, among others) which is interspersed with testimonies from residents and farmers, victims of violence and poverty.
