Description:
"À Valparaiso" is a poetic look at the Chilean port city, filmed in 1963 by Joris Ivens while he was teaching filmmaking to local students. The film explores the difference between Valparaiso’s rich past, built on many hills, and its present, with its mix of wealth and poverty, everyday life on its streets, stairs, railways, and in its bars. As the port's importance fades, the movie blends historical grandeur with modern struggles using a poetic style. It moves from black-and-white to color, ending with a hopeful scene of children playing, offering a positive view of Valparaiso’s complicated history and changing city.
