About Jackal of Nahueltoro
Based on an actual murder case that ignited a furious debate over the death penalty in Chile in 1960, this experimental social drama portrays the life and death of an illiterate peasant who, while drunk, murdered the woman with whom he had a relationship and her five children.
Directed by Miguel Littín, Jackal of Nahueltoro leans on a strong ensemble — Nelson Villagra, Shenda Román, Marcelo Romo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1970.
