“Why Do I Feel So Much Pain, Violeta Parra?”

Patricio Zamorano writes a poetic piece for UK-based blog Chileno on the Chilean film about the life of Violeta Parra:

how to assess the Chilean film “Violeta [Parra] went to heaven” on opening night in Washington DC.

After listing many reasons why Chile hurts, the author ends addressing Violeta Parra herself, telling her “don’t worry, my dear Violeta”, for her songs remain and reviews the most important titles by Parra.
