He soon came to international attention as one of the most promising directors of his generation. His second film in 2007, <em>Tony Manero<\/em> was presented at the Quinzaine des r\u00e9alisateurs at Cannes Film Festival and won numerous awards including <strong>Best Film<\/strong> at the <strong>Torino Film Festival<\/strong>. From this film, he then developed a successful and allegorical historical-political trilogy reflecting over Chile under Pinochet. The first film in the trilogy (which is the third of his career) is <em>Post Mortem<\/em>, a chronicle of the 1973 Chilean coup d&#8217;\u00e9tat, which in 2010 participated in the official competition at the Venice International Film Festival. In 2012 he directed <em>No<\/em>. The film was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 85th Academy Awards, being the first Chilean nomination in the category. In 2013, Larra\u00edn served as a member of the jury for the official competition at the 70th Venice International Film Festival. In 2015, <em>The Club<\/em> was released, which brilliantly closed the anti-Pinochet trilogy and won the <strong>Silver Bear Grand Jury Prize<\/strong> in Berlin. The movie stars Roberto Farias in the character of Sandokan, the same name as in <em>Acceso <\/em>(at FIT in 2016) the play that he co-wrote and directed with Larra\u00edn.<\/p>\n<p>Larra\u00edn landed in Hollywood in 2016 where he made his mark in the biographical genre. Pablo Neruda (<em>Neruda<\/em> 2016), Jacqueline Kennedy (<em>Jackie<\/em> 2016) and Lady Diana (<em>Spencer <\/em>2021) are the famous personalities whose lives he narrates, shattered by grief, family hatred and political enemies. His most recent biographical film recounts the final days of the life of Maria Callas (<em>Maria<\/em> 2024).<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, four days before the fiftieth anniversary of the state coup, <em>El Conde<\/em> is released in cinemas \u2013 a darkly delirious satire starring a 250-year-old vampire version of Augusto Pinochet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&lt; photo<\/strong> Victoria Stevens<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><em>@ FIT<br \/>\n<\/em><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6FkDv164IwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Acceso<\/em><\/span><\/a><br \/>\n2016 Edition<br \/>\n30.09 &#8211; 09.10<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00abUp until now \u2013 and this might change \u2013 I&#8217;ve leaned towards subjects I find uncomfortable and that elicit a sense of danger.
