Burning Patience (Ardiente Paciencia) is a 2022 Netflix drama movie directed by Rodrigo Sepúlveda starring Vivianne Dietz, Claudio Arredondo and Andrew Bargstead.
A movie that appeals to the land, the emotions and to poetry.
Premise
A young fisherman, Mario, dreams of becoming a poet. Destiny would have it that he lands a job as the postman to Pablo Neruda when the legendary writer moves there after being exiled from Chile.
Movie Review
A movie that uses beauty as an excuse to appeal to the autochthonous, and poetry to tell us a story (at times very political) of love in times of conflict, applying language borrowed from a man in exile with a great deal of political awareness.
Burning Patience
The result? A modest production, with decent photography, and relatively good performances, albeit a tad melodramatic. Making a blockbuster was not in the cards at the time of taking this project on.

Fast emerging as a go-to company for high-profile Chilean and women director titles, Buenos Aires boutique agency Meikincine has swooped on “My Brothers Dream Awake,” ahead of its world premiere at Switzerland’s Locarno Festival on Saturday.
Competing in Cineasti del Presente, a section reserved for emerging filmmakers from around the world, “My Brothers Dream Awake” marks the second feature outing for young Chilean Mapuche cineaste Claudia Huaiquimilla, who burst onto the scene with 2016’s “Bad Influence,” establishing herself as a voice of abused minorities.
Written by Huaiquimilla and Pablo Greene, the film shares this sensibility. Dedicated – at least in a rough cut seen at Ventana Sur – to the 1,313 inmates who have died at youth detention centers in Chile, the film earliest stretches turn on Angel and younger brother Franco, incarcerated in a youth penitentiary for a year, pending trial. They now have friends, Angel even a puppy love attachment to a girl inmate,...
