TELENOVELA explores the secret lives of a family swept up in the final days of Pinochets dictatorship in Chile. There is Lucho: bullied by fellow soldiers for his love of poetry, thwarted in his ambitions to become a writer. He seems like a loving father. He seems loveable. And maybe he is. But as TELENOVELA unfolds, other things come to light about Lucho that are less easy to indulge or forgive. There is Ramona, Luchos wife: tormented by anxiety, overwhelmed by body image problems. Ramona once hoped to become a telenovela star; she secretly daydreams that she might still get her big break. She seems like an innocent. But is she? Then there is Pablo, their son: dreamy, gentle, eager to form his own band and write some worthwhile songs. Desperate to be cool... And increasingly, just desperate. These people are deeply human - but Telenovela makes us understand how inhumane they can also be. How easy it is to be complicit in authoritarian regimes - and how personal stories can take on universal significance..
