Born in 1974, Sebastián Lelio is one of the leading figures (along with Pablo Larraín, Andrés Wood and a few others) of the post-dictatorship Chilean cinema. After graduating from the "Escuela de Cine de Chile" in Santiago, Lelio started by making shorts (he made five from 1995 to 2003, as well as a documentary). From 2005 on, he directed four remarkable feature films, the first three very dark, the fourth one somewhat lighter, which all garnered awards in the festival circuit. The Sacred Family (2005) is kind of Chilean version of Pier Paolo Pasolini's Teorema (1968). It was followed by Navidad (2009), a drama of uncommon intensity focusing on three teenagers alienated from their families and The Year of the Tiger (2011), recounting the escape of an inmate during Chile's 2010 earthquake. Coming after this taught triptych, Gloria (2013) surprises by its peaceful tone. The amorous adventures of Gloria, a sixty-year-old office worker in Santiago, although not without tensions and bitterness, are less upsetting than what Lelio had filmed before. But whether dark or rosy, Lelio's cinema explores the Chilean society of today with the same acuteness.- Actor

Felipe Gálvez Haberle was born in 1983 in Santiago, Chile. Felipe is an editor and writer, known for The Settlers (2023), Silencio en la sala (2009) and Rapaz (2018).- A high forehead, a bald head, a long emaciated face, wrinkled eyes, oversized fangs, an ogre's voice tinged with a weird accent, a terribly skinny figure... Is that the description of Murnau or Herzog's arch-vampire Nosferatu ? Well, it might be. But the description also applies to Daniel Emilfork, an actor whose ghoulish physique obviously did not predispose to play young leads or unblemished heroes. But if "ugliness" repels, it can also attract - if only in a pervert and morbid way. It naturally took Emilfork time and efforts to come to terms with this "peculiarity", but he did learn how to play with it - to a great advantage as an actor and to our great pleasure as spectators -, making his persona fascinating instead of repulsive. Well served in terms of eccentric characters by the theater, he gave his full measure as a companion to such great authors as Shakespeare, John Ford, Tchekhov, Kafka, Wedekind, García Lorca. Television also gave him access to major authors like Sheridan, Dostoyevski, Kafka, Dürrenmatt, Dominique Fernandez. Emilforrk was unfortunately was singularly less well treated by film producers, who cast him all too often as the villain on duty in run-of-the-mill products. Not that his big screen appearances were not enjoyable. Quite the contrary, for the eccentric thespian invariably brought an uncanny dimension to his characters, one-dimensional or not, creating fear or suggesting unease and ambiguity by his mere presence. It goes without saying that, when he appeared in a major work, his amazing performance gave an already good body of work even additional value. Not hostile in the second half of his career to experimental cinema, he is fondly remembered by the general public for at least two (frightening) roles, Kanak, the cannibal doctor imagined by Gaston Leroux, in the television series "Chéri Bibi" (1974) and Krank, the thief of children's dreams from "The City of Lost Children" (1995). Emilfork can also be seen in international productions playing for example the role of Colonel Hakim in Cukor's "Travels with My Aunt", of the the eccentric (how could it be otherwise?) marquis of "Fellini's Casanova" (1976) or the secretary in Roman Polanski's "Pirates" (1986). Daniel Emilfork remained active until his death in 2006, in films, on television, in radio and on the stage, not to mention his activity as the manager of Patrice Chéreau's drama school at the Théâtre des Amandiers. He was widower of the actress Denis Péron whom he had married in 1951 and father of the actress and stage director Stéphanie Loïk.

Luis Gnecco Dessy was born in Santiago, Chile. He is one of Chile's most popular comedic actors, recently tackling the Ricky Gervais part in his country's version of "The Office". Pablo Larraín cast him in a decidedly non-comedic role as an unscrupulous villain in HBO Latin America's hit mini-series "Prófugos". Gnecco appeared in Fabula's provocative "Young and Wild" before assuming the role of the man who recruits Saavedra to join the NO campaign; it was a natural fit for the actor, as he was deeply involved in the 1988 movement to overthrow Pinochet.
