The gripping Chronicle of an Escape—based on real events during the Argentine “disappearances” in 1977—centers on a goalkeeper for a professional soccer team who is held prisoner and tortured after (wrongly) being identified as a terrorist.

With its exceptional performances, the film documents the experiences of the prisoners by focusing on their detailed psychological battles with their captors rather than the physical brutalities. (103 mins., 35mm)

Salvador Allende, the latest essential film by Patricio Guzmán, one of the great political documentarians of our time, is a heartfelt, personal tribute to Salvador Allende, the Chilean president who was the world’s first democratically elected Marxist leader. (100 mins., 35mm)

Second film start time is 8:50 PM.
