To mark the 50th anniversary of the disastrous 1973 Coup in Chile, come to a screening of the award-winning documentary Cruel Separation with director, Sarah Boston.

Cruel Separation is the story of the military coup in Chile on 11 September 1973 from the point of view of four women who lived through it: Hortensia Bussi de Allende, widow of President Salvador Allende; Joan Jara, widow of political singer-songwriter, Victor Jara; Joyce Horman, whose story was made famous in the award-winning film Missing; Angela Jeria de Bachelet, widow of a General loyal to President Allende, whose daughter later became President following Chile’s return to democracy. Narrated by Donald Sutherland, the film won the award for best international documentary in 2006. The director, Sarah Boston, will introduce the film and be available to answer questions.
