Marilú Mallet

Filmmaker and writer Marilú MALLET (1944, Chile) came to Quebec as a political refugee after Chile’s coup d’état in 1973. Mallet comes from a well-known Santiago family: her father was the Minister of Education and a close friend of Salvador Allende’s and her mother was a painter. She discussed her experiences as an immigrant in Les Borges (1978) and worked together with Jorge Fajardo and Rodrigo Gonzáles on Il n’y a pas oubli (1975) which along with Journal inachivé (1982) is part of the IFFR 2024 Focus: Chile in the Heart.
