Espacio Moneda - One man running, an entire system challenged
Set in Santiago, Chile, in 2011, this documentary follows the enigmatic protest of a man who runs endlessly around the government palace. Without sleep or rest, he carries a single demand: “Free Education Now!”
As the camera tracks his relentless motion, it captures not just a personal act of resistance but a wider call to question privilege, power, and the urgency of reform. Against the backdrop of Chile’s student movements, the film is a stark, poetic portrait of hope, determination, and the lengths one will go to be heard.
