Casa Salvador Allende Toronto (CASAT) commemorates the 51st anniversary of the Chilean coup on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, at 7:00 PM at the Royal Theatre with a special screening of Love and Justice: In The Footsteps of Beethoven’s Rebel Opera. This 83-minute documentary by Kerry Candaele, filmed in Valparaíso, Chile, weaves together Beethoven’s Fidelio with the story of composer Jorge Peña Hen, who was executed during the 1973 coup. The film, a poetic tribute to the victims, will be followed by a discussion with the filmmaker, who will be a special guest at the screening.
