Alluding to the agreement of November 15, 2019, when it was agreed to carry out a constituent process in Chile, the trailer for a documentary called “La Desilusión” assures that the country is reflecting on the concept of “the house of all “which should be the new Magna Carta of the country.
In the propaganda video published ahead of the exit plebiscite that will take place in September, faces such as those of the lawyer Rodrigo Arellano, the writer Ernesto Ottone and the former deputy Pepe Auth appear, who have not spoken out in this regard. However, the journalist Mirko Macari and the psychologist and founder of Criteria Research Cristián Valdivieso, who also appear in the audiovisual piece, stepped forward, assuring that they were indeed asked to participate in a documentary, but that they were not informed that “it was of a Rejection campaign”.
“A video is circulating on WhatsApp with a fragment of an interview that they asked me for a documentary about the constituent process. The piece has nothing of the kind and is only proselytizing for Rejection, although it is not directly mentioned. I was never informed of those purposes. I approve,” said Macari, winner of the UAH Journalism Award for Excellence.
“They also interviewed me months ago as a citizen medium that would interview analysts about the social and political process. They did not tell me that it was for a rejection campaign. There is no wedge of mine in the entire documentary in favor of rejection. I will make my decision public in its time”, responded, for his part, Valdivieso.
The founder and director of Criteria added that “given the nature of the documentary to which I was deceptively invited, I will formally request that my participation be removed, reserving the legal action I deem appropriate.”
Macari added: “the journalist who contacted me, Sergio Paz, I have known him for many years and I consider him a great chronicler (I read his book on Camiroaga). Now he tells me that the focus is not Rejection, but Disillusionment. I informed him that I’m not disappointed in anything since the old poinsettia.”
“La Disillusion. The documentary” intends to be released on August 15, according to its preview published by the “Saca la Voz” platform, and one of its producers is Benjamín Correa Braun, director of the Center for Public Policies at the Universidad San Sebastian.
