Cast

Background

The film took five years to finish. One of the problems directors Bardauil and Verdoia had was that they started filming before their financing package was complete.

The Argentine economy crashed right after they began to shoot in the early 2000s. Co-director Bardauil said, "Chile 672 was conceived before the country’s economic downfall. So, originally it wasn't our decision to refer to the crisis, rather it was its explosion which forced us to reformulate the story later on."[2]

Distribution

The picture was first presented at the Rome Film Festival, Italy on October 14, 2006.

The film opened in Argentina on November 30, 2006.

It has been screened at a few film festivals, including: the Latin American Film Festival, London; the International Film Festival, Goa, India; the International Film Festival Mannheim-Heidelberg, Germany; and others.
