Master Hong Sang-soo demonstrates a way that, without escaping human drama, is based in respect, in caring, in the search for love, which makes him a fundamental director; this is why it\u2019s our duty to share him with our audience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The show is part of FICValdivia\u2019s 24th edition program. Throughout September, the festival will announce the guest filmmakers that will be in Valdivia in October, as well as the films that make up the competitive Official Selection at the event.<\/p>\n<p>The Valdivia International Film Festival screens Chilean and international cinema in four competitive categories: International Feature, Chilean Feature, Latin American Short Film and Latin American Children\u2019s Short Film. Its out-of-competition program includes historical retrospectives, focuses on contemporary filmmakers, an avant-garde series, political cinema and films on gender issues, as well as a special section for children and their families. It is organized by Universidad Austral de Chile, produced by the Valdivia Cultural Center for Film Promotion (CPCV), convened by the Great City of Valdivia, the Los R\u00edos Regional Government and CODEPROVAL, and financed by the Chilean National Council for Culture and the Arts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During its 24th edition, FICValdivia will screen all the films Hong Sang-soo premiered this year: On the Beach at Night Alone (2017 Berlinale Official Selection competition), The Day After (2017 Cannes Official Selection competition) and Claire\u2019s Camera (Special Screening at Cannes 2017).
