ABOUT THE FILM
2024 (Chile, Germany, Mexico, Uruguay)
Director: Juan Francisco Olea
Duration: 83 min
Juan Francisco Olea´s second feature follows young Carola (Katalina Sanchez) and her father Pacifico (Veteran Chilean actor Francisco Melo) as they run small‑scale copper mines trying to survive in an environment ruled by hardship and unspoken rules.
Shot on location, with stunning aerial views of the unforgiving Atacama Desert wonderfully captured by DP Sergio Armstrong (usual collaborator of Chilean director Pablo Larraín), Bitter Gold is a pulse-pounding Chilean take on the Neo-western genre that uses all its stripped-down archetypes and plot threads, to tell a story about entrenched social structures.
