Abstract
During a convulsed political period that will reach its climax with a military coup in 1973, Chilean cinema focused on the question of its function as a source of social change and support for the Popular Unity government (UP). Questioning its cinematographic operations and establishing a clarifying index of refl exivity, two fi lms Queridos compañeros (1976) and Realismo socialista (1973) will leave traces of an interrupted process within political cinema in Chile. Both fi lms state a critique of traditional left cinema, one by means of parody, and the other by a “mise en abyme”- or a story-within-a-story- of its narration
