Letters from Santiago

The film follows Laura Hellmer, who uncovers a family secret just before her 18th birthday. Instead of the expected story of her father, a deceased Spanish war photographer, she learns that he may still be alive in Chile. Driven by curiosity and the need for answers, Laura travels to Santiago, retracing her mother's footsteps as a political journalist investigating the effects of the Pinochet dictatorship.

As the narrative unfolds, Laura's journey becomes as much about reconciling her past as it is about discovering her father. The film features a strong cast including Nilam Farooq, Christine Neubauer, and Bastián Bodenhöfer. Their performances bring depth to a story that intertwines personal history with significant political themes.
