La Batalla De Chile: La Lucha De Un Pueblo Sin Armas
(The Battle of Chile: The Struggle of The People Without Arms

Director: Patricio Guzmán


Part 1. La insurrección de la burguesia (The Insurrection of the Bourgeoisie)


Part 2. El golpe de estado (A Blow Against the State)


Part 3. El poder popular (The Power of the People)


The Battle of Chile, which consists of three feature-length parts, uses actuality footage to record the socio-economic and political turmoil preceding the fall of Chile's Marxist-socialist president, Salvador Allende, in 1973. While the film is an outstanding example of the documentary as a record of history-in-the-making, it is also a carefully conceived and clearly organized analysis of these events. Guzmán structured the first two parts of his film around selected "battlegrounds" (e.g., a strike of copper miners) where class interests clashed. The major issues and strategies in these clashes are generally presented in a dialectical fashion: for instance, the film may first show the tactics of the rightist forces and then the counter-measures with which the left responds. The filmmakers infiltrated the entire political spectrum and succeeded in showing events from multiple political perspectives as they unfolded. Part three of the film is structured differently in that it focuses on a single phenomenon—a people's power movement which first arose as a response to a bosses' strike.

Is this in English, or does it have English subtitles?

Hey - I actually downloaded this anyway, and it does not have any subtitles. Too bad, it looks to be excellent.

Here are subtitles for the Part I. I do not have access to the video files so I have not tested it. However, I normally use VLC for videos with subtitles. If the subtitles are out of sync you can use the H and J keys to align them with the audio.

Thanks - I downloaded the subtitle file for part one, it does work, and I had to delay the subtitles (using VLC player) by about -50 seconds (actually delaying the video). At some point, there's a cut in the video and the delay must be readjusted. A bit of a pain, but still a good documentary.
