No (2012)

Director: Pablo Larraín

2012 / 118min / DCP

In 1988, international pressure forces Augusto Pinochet to call a plebiscite on his presidency. The country will vote YES or NO to another eight years of his rule. Opposition leaders persuade a brash young advertising executive, René Saavedra (Gael García Bernal), to spearhead their campaign. Against both the odds and pressure from shady actors such as Lucho Guzmán (Alfredo Castro), Saavedra and his team devise an audacious plan to win the election and set Chile free.

“Alfredo Castro portrays with the sophistication that characterizes his work a modern villain who tries to infiltrate and destroy the hope of a whole country.”—Series curators Javier Guerrero and Juana Suárez
