Patricio wants time alone with Francisca while she tries to forget her recent heartbreak. Sofia, a sexy hitchhiker, just wants a little distraction on her aimless journey. In a beautiful beach house on the Chilean coast, three twentysomethings are about to get much more than they expected.
Young people took to the streets with political muralism all over Chile in the late 60s, at the same time that young people in New York were starting modern graffiti, and May 68 took place in Paris. Chile Estyle is a documentary film which explores the past and present of Chile's unique street art tradition, which comes from a remix of political muralism and graffiti, and has been part of Chilean cultural and political life since the 60s. The result is a visually arresting, informative, and entertaining film.
When Camilo and his girlfriend, Pola, start to struggle in their relationship, she asks for a week away from him to assess the situation. Although Camilo agrees, he feels confused, as his undemanding life is made uncomfortable for the first time. Soon he meets Mikela, a disaffected teenage girl whom he befriends. However, when Camilo discovers Mikela's past diagnosis as a schizophrenic, he begins to worry about her safety.
In a time of curfew, no freedom of expression and an official culture that fostered simpleton and absurd pop, young people in various places in Chile caused a spontaneous cry of disgust to germinate. The protest music against the dictatorship was monopolized by the Canto Nuevo groups until punk broke out. With interviews with members of Fiskales ad-hok, Dadá, Pinochet Boys and PolĂticos Muertos, among others, Pank responds to the need to recreate an aspect of our recent history, whose precariousness and effervescence prevented it from being documented at the time.
