The Eternal Memory (La memoria infinita): dir Maite Alberdi (2023)

This critically acclaimed Chilean documentary film follows the relationship of Chilean journalist Augusto Góngora, one of Chile’s most prominent cultural journalists and TV presenters, and actress Paulina Urrutia (who served as Minister of Culture and the Arts of the country from 2006 to 2010). They have been a couple for 23 years; eight years ago, Augusto was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, and since then, Paulina has been caring for him. Today, it is up to him and his wife to maintain his identity despite the challenges of his illness … This is a moving, loving portrait with absolutely no mawkishness about it. Recommended.
