About NOSTALGIA DE LA LUZ- Patricío Guzmán (interview editor Emanuelle Joly)

On the Chilean desert mountains of Atacama the most powerful telescopes of the world have been installed. While scientists look into the cosmos for the origins of life, archeologists explore the soil to trace back signs of pre-Colombian populations. Amidst them a group of parents wanders around, looking for traces of their children disappeared during the regime of Pinochet. Pain and poetry fuse in a film that touches on the founding values of humanity.
