On September 11, while La Moneda is bombed, Salvador Allende orders Manuel Ruiz, a Spanish lawyer and youngest advisor, to leave the government palace. He has to survive in order to tell the world about the social transformations that were attempted in Chile. 50 years after the coup d’état, Ruiz recounts those 1000 days of a President who wanted to make a revolution respecting freedoms and democracy, but who died tragically in the effort. Ruiz remembers how attempts to overthrow Allende began the same day he won the elections. The sectors that saw their influence and assets threatened, resisted in every possible way. To neutralize his adversaries, Allende incessantly searched for support in the political center without finding it. These efforts created tensions in his own coalition, that soon began to loudly ask to “move forward without compromise”. Ruiz portrays a lucid strategist, a political creator, who believes that “the path is made by walking”. A man ahead of his time who provokes profound admiration — but also fear. He shows the story of a loving father, a faithful friend, of a man with a weakness for women, who loves to be admired by them, and who, despite the passing of the years, still has the vanity of a twenty- year-old. Of a connoisseur and lover of life.
