Que Hacer (1971) A spy story-musical feature film that brilliantly weaves documentary coverage of the Allende election and turmoil afterwards, with a fast-moving story of political intrigue. A young woman Peace Corps worker becomes involved with a mysterious American 'businessman' and subsequently joins with Chilean revolutionaries. This Brechtian treatment of the Allende election and the imperial politics that intervenes in the Chilean affairs, features the songs and acting of Country Joe McDonald as well as President Allende himself. It was filmed on location during the historic elections of 1970. QUE HACER is still, after 28 years, a deliciously playful film, with a lot of cinematographic tricks and ingenous cutting, reminiscent of Godard's A BOUT DE SOUFFLE. Awards at Cannes, Venice and Mannheim.
