Penitentes Penitentes
Religiosity is an immaterial wealth that preserves the identity of a people. Documentary filmmaker Patricio González Colville searches for the ancestral rites that characterize the relationship between God and man from the countryside. A strange mix of faith, devotion, pagan festival, wine, submission, violence and sorcery make up these rites whose origin has been forgotten but tradition does not allow losing. Cultural mixes over time have given rise to the peculiar current peasant religion. The documentalist's camera allows the country man to express his personal experiences, beliefs and divergences with divinity in his simple language. Through five chapters, the documentary searches the Maule Region for the descendants of Adam, expelled from Paradise to cultivate the land. What kind of faith does this man have left and how does he manifest it? The documentary presents his perspective on this controversial issue.

Private Diary documents photographer Pedro Usabiaga working with a variety of amateur models. The audience sees how the relationships between the photographer and the subjects changes during their time together, as well as how the individual photographs begin to take shape.
