Gael García Bernal protagoniza primera de Chile, nominado al Oscar, drama, sobre el referéndum de 1988, relativa a largo plazo de Pinochet control sobre la presidencia y los métodos poco ortodoxos de la campaña "NO" SIDE. Basado en la obra de Antonio Skármeta Plebiscito de El, René Bernal interpreta a Saavedra como un pez fuera del agua a hombre, que termina separando los mares. Las atrocidades cometidas bajo Pinochet fueron innumerables, pero concibiendo una serie aparentemente superficial de los anuncios de televisión llenos de colores brillantes, canciones, bailes y positividad over-the-top, Saavedra encuentra un camino más allá de miedo de la gente y la resignación, hacia un cambio político profundo.

Gael García Bernal stars in Chile's first Oscar-nominated drama, about the 1988 referendum on Pinochet's long-term grip on the presidency and the unorthodox methods of the “NO” side's ad campaign. Based on Antonio Skármeta’s play El Plebiscito, Bernal plays René Saavedra as a fish out of water ad man, who ends up parting the seas. The atrocities committed under Pinochet were innumerable, but by conceiving an apparently superficial series of TV ads filled with bright colors, song, dance and over-the-top positivity, Saavedra finds a way past people’s fear and resignation, toward profound political change.
