The Eternal Memory
Walking a thin line between documentary and fiction with The Mole Agent, Chilean filmmaker Maite Alberdi has demonstrated an impressive sensitivity and compassion in approaching subjects dealing with end-of-life illnesses. The Eternal Memory is no different. This documentary delves into the intimacy of journalist Augusto Góngora and his wife, Paulina Urrutia. He, however, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's eight years ago, and they now live with tenderness and patience, but fearing the day when he will no longer recognize her. The story is not only devastating – in the best sense of the word – for its inherent drama but is also an essay on memory itself and its fragility, as well as on the role of cinema as a document to preserve historical memory and raise awareness about the disease.
