Program Note
Violetta Parra the Chilean musician, a folklorist, a visual artist is also known as the ‘mother of Latin American folklore’ with her over-arching influence in the various genres of the arts. The film is a sensational biopic on her artistic vitality, capturing the becoming of an international pop icon from her difficult childhood. Her passionate spirit is under the spotlight as she refuses to compromise traditional values, living as a non-conformist till her last days.
Amongst other movies with emphasis on music, <Violeta Went to Heaven> is expected to be the best received film on the list. The undeniable joy in watching this film is heightened by the underlying music, richly exotic melody of her folk songs playing throughout the film. Through the life of an artist insisting her own traditional values, never wavering from her ways, a woman from a third world country impresses Europe focusing only on her music, destined to pursue art, split from her love along the way. (RHEE, Soue-won)
