Dreaming of Utopia: 50 Years of Revolutionary Hope and Memory

Master documentarian Patricio Guzmán (b. 1941) has documented the tumultuous political history of his native Chile for over fifty years. From the democratically elected socialist government of President Salvador Allende in the early seventies to the US-backed coup led by General Augusto Pinochet, and more recently to the social uprising that opened the door for the rewriting of a new constitution, Guzmán has served as a witness and chronicler of the history of the South American nation. His commitment to filming the lived history of his country for more than 50 years is unprecedented in world cinema.
This September 11th marks the 50th anniversary of the 1973 coup led by General Pinochet and his army, which drastically changed the history of Chile and Latin America.
To mark the occasion, Icarus Films is proud to announce a special film series in New York City celebrating the work of the influential and lauded Chilean director and his five-decade career.
The series, presented with Cinema Tropical, in partnership with Anthology Film Archives, Brooklyn Academy of Music, and the IFC Center, includes the following programs:
- His feature-length debut The First Year captures the first 12 months of Allende’s democratically elected, socialist government. It was released in 1972 in Chile and in France (where Chris Marker produced a French-language version of the film), but never in North America. Now fully restored in 4K, Anthology Film Archives will host a one-week run in its North American premiere.
- Guzmán’s monumental, three-part epic The Battle of Chile, filmed in 1973, chronicles the escalating conflicts in Chilean society that led up to and ended with General Pinochet and his army’s coup, on September 11th of that year. Widely considered one of the greatest documentary films ever made, the Brooklyn Academy of Music will present the North American premiere run of the 4K restoration.
- The IFC Center, where Guzman’s most recent films have all premiered theatrically in the US, will host special screenings of his memory and landscape trilogy: Nostalgia for the Light, The Pearl Button, and The Cordillera of Dreams, as well as last year’s My Imaginary Country, on September 13th and 14th.
SELF RELIANCE – Coming to Hulu September 8th
- In a deal with MRC and Paramount Global Content Distribution, Hulu has acquired the U.S. rights to Jake Johnson’s feature directorial debut, “Self Reliance”. The hilarious and thrilling film is also written by and starring Jake Johnson, and boasts an all-star cast including Johnson (“New Girl”, “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,” “Minx”), Anna Kendrick, Natalie Morales, Andy Samberg, GaTa (“Dave”), Emily Hampshire (“Schitt’s Creek”), Mary Holland, Boban Marjanović, with Christopher Lloyd, and Wayne Brady. The fiercely competitive deal was struck on the heels of the world premiere of the MRC-financed film at the 2023 SXSW Film Festival in March, which was a festival favorite, screening to a standing-room-only audience. The hilarious film will premiere as a Hulu Original on September 8.
- When a man is offered a million dollars to play a game in which hunters try to kill him, he thinks he has found the perfect loophole: they can only attack when he’s alone. His only problem is that none of his friends or family believe the game is real.
- “Self Reliance” is produced by Lonely Island and Walcott Productions, while Ali Bell, Joe Hardesty and Jake Johnson serve as producers and executive producers include Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, Jorma Taccone.

“I’ve always been fascinated by the beauty and magnitude of space,” said Michelle Williams. “I’m excited to work with Nathaniel and IMAX to tell the story of the captivating images taken by this new telescope.”
