Raúl Ruiz's death left a void in the most transgressive fantastic cinema. A filmmaker who loved the world of ghosts, his presence has become, in itself, an invocation. It's a known fact that old rockers never die; maybe that's why Ruiz has given us one more work, with marked overtones of a testamentary film. La Noche de Enfrente follows the ups and downs of a man, on the verge of death, during three different stages of his life. Ruiz quietly constructs a film full of magic moments, which is both a farewell and a tribute to the Spanish language. (Sitges Film Festival)

An example that even in Chile it's possible to make quite an interesting film that manages to captivate. Sure, it's not for everyone, as it deals with death, life, and memories, but that doesn't mean the film can't thrill the audience. For me, however, it's more about encountering something that I would appreciate significantly, just because it captivated me with its unique approach.
