In 1973, the film director Miguel Littn fled Chile after a U.S.supported military coup toppled the democratically elected socialist government of Salvador Allende. The new dictator, General Augusto Pinochet, instituted a reign of terror and turned Chile into a laboratory to test the poisonous prescriptions of the American economist Milton Friedman. In 1985, Littn returned to Chile disguised as a Uruguayan businessman. He was desperate to see the homeland hed been exiled from for so many years; he also meant to pull off a very tricky stunt: with the help of three film crews from three different countries, each supposedly busy making a movie to promote tourism, he would secretly put together a film that would tell the truth about Pinochets benighted Chilea film that would capture the worlds attention while landing the general and his secret police with a very visible black eye.Afterwards, the great novelist Gabriel Garca Mrquez sat down with Littn to hear the story of his escapade, with all its scary, comic, and notalittle surreal ups and downs. Then, applying the same unequaled gifts that had already gained him a Nobel Prize, Garca Mrquez wrote it down. Clandestine in Chile is a truelife adventure story and a classic of modern reportage.
